Hope in the Heart of Conflict
The Artisans of Peace Program creates space for peacebuilders to gather in an environment of trust and creativity that nurtures hope, sparks concrete collaboration, and creates relationships that build resilience and protect against destructive rivalry.
UnRival accompanies peacebuilders to nurture hope, inspire collaboration, and overcome destructive rivalries.
These are divided and difficult times when peacebuilders from diverse cultures, religions, and worldviews desperately need spaces of trust, curiosity, and collaboration.
Gathering Community
unRival Network is an ever-expanding community of peacebuilders. We accompany one another through shared experiences and partnerships that renew hope, inspire collaboration, and overcome destructive rivalry.
Deconstructing Rivalry
No community is free of rivalry, unRival Network included. Instead of denying our conflicts and desires, we engage honestly in spaces created to invite trust, vulnerability, and curiosity. Spaces where even bitter conflicts can give way to friendship and belonging.
Inspiring Collaboration
Forming friendships instead of enemies and rivals reveals otherwise unimaginable opportunities. Pursuing these unexpected paths with collaborators from diverse cultures, religions, and worldviews opens the possibility of transformation, hope, and flourishing for all people.

Artisans
of Peace
Even the most creative and courageous peacebuilders are not immune to fear, destructive rivalry, and discouragement. To remain human in increasingly violent times, we desperately need spaces that renew hope and inspire collaboration.
