We were delighted to host Masters students from the Hekima Institute of Peace Studies and International Relations-HIPSIR Nairobi, for an engaging learning session at the Catholic Justice and Peace Department (CJPD) of the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops.

The session provided an opportunity to share insights on CJPDโ€™s work in promoting justice, peace, human dignity and sustainable development across Kenya. The students, drawn from diverse nationalities including Kenya, South Sudan, Ghana, DR Congo and Afghanistan, actively engaged in discussions and reflections on community development in practice.

We are grateful to their lecturer, Fr. Dr. Elisรฉe Rutagambwa from Rwanda, for his kind words and appreciation of the session, noting its value in equipping students with practical perspectives to complement their academic learning.

At CJPD, we remain committed to nurturing the next generation of peacebuilders and development practitioners through knowledge sharing and collaboration.

|KCCB Press statement |

โ€œโ€ฆWe have also watched with consternation as political goons disrupting meetings and desecrating places of worship, making utterances that demean the dignity of high public offices. We continue to see and hear abuse, insults and messages of hate hurled by our political leaders at each other. We cannot afford to degenerate into the primitive culture of goons, but rather must uphold righteous leadership in democracyโ€ฆโ€
