The Ethiopian Youth for Peace and Development (EYPD),is inviting you to an international webinar on Religion, Violence, and HumanRights. Over the past decade, conflicts across Sub-SaharanAfrica have become more complex, deeply impacting youth and women. Whilepolitical and economic factors are widely discussed, the powerful role ofreligion and Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB) is too often ignored. Faith-based tensions do not happen in isolation-they intersect with ethnicdivisions and structural inequalities. This is why coming together to dialogueand learn from experts is absolutely vital.

This webinar creates a safe, data-driven space to turn evidence into collective action.
