Description: Started in 2016 , Peacemaker 360 is a registered communication nonprofit (501c3) founded by Christian Cirhigiri, a peace activist from the Democratic Republic of Congo. The initiative is the result of years of commitment to promoting youth participation in peacebuilding processes in his home country and his work around the world. As part of his master’s thesis research, Christian explored the roles played by young activists in eastern Congo, Burundi and Sri Lanka in promoting ethnic reconciliation in their communities. One of the key findings of this research was the lack of visibility in both mainstream and social media of the incredible works and life stories of young peacebuilders around the world. This realization encouraged Christian to build an online platform to tell young peacebuilders’ stories and build a supportive global community for peacebuilding professionals to inspire each other and share useful knowledge and resources with each other. This was the beginning of an exciting Peacemaker 360 life!. Out team continues to grow and our work even more needed around the world. Kindly, consider supporting our cause by connecting us with activists in your community or by donating any amount to help us reach more young peacebuilders through our joint efforts.
