Participants will represent all LWF regions. After the training, they will be required to implement small projects in their home contexts, through LWF Youth grants. 

Applicants must:  

  1. Have experience in church leadership and familiarity with LWF’s values and theological commitments;  
  2. Commit to set aside time to organize and implement a local peace leadership project; 
  3. Submit an endorsement letter from their member church’s national office.
