Research and Scholarship
Interfaith peace building is a relatively new field. Theoretical approaches and frameworks for evaluation are beginning to emerge, but there is a growing need to measure impact and effectiveness. We support the work of established and emerging scholars in a variety of interfaith and peace-related fields, and we hope that in the coming years CRT will become an active forum for exchange of ideas and information to help the field develop research-based action strategies.
