KAIROS PEACE CLUBS APPLI is happy to introduce KAIROS Peace Club to students unions, academic and administrative communities of high schools, colleges and universities. KAIROS means the in-breaking or appointed time of God.  It is time for peace to reign on our campuses. It needs to  be emphasized that schools are  models for society in its entire ramification.  Ranking next to Ethnoreligious conflicts in Africa is student riots and student violence. The situation at our learning institutions is worse because many factors (ethnic identity conflicts, tribal hatred, religious differences, socio-cultural diversities, economic hardship, political and ideological differences and campus cult practices) combine to create student violence on campuses.  The spare of religious riots and cult killings in African campuses is alarming.  The cults have turned the citadels of learning in African higher institutions to battlefield of undeclared wars.   Many promising lives had been cut short in their prime ages by campus violence. The dreams of many families had been dashed through the wicked killings of their children and many parents have been thrown into perpetual sorrows. Incessant news reports on campus killings are indeed ear-tingling and mind-boggling. What we stand to do KAIROS peace and love clubs serve as nonviolence and positive peace education centers to organize seminars, workshops, meetings and conferences for resolution of Ethnoreligious crises and cult activities on campuses for the prevention of violence and for the establishment of campus peace and peaceful co-existence to mediate among various groups in times of crises to organize anti-cult programs and rallies to stand as peer counseling groups for students and staff and also to share the campus programs for peace among various groups on the campus to provide leadership training opportunities that can foster campus peace to anticipate and work towards preventing potential vortexes of crises among students to educate peace loving students how to nonviolently tackle Ethnoreligious violence promoters and violence engineers with positive peacemaking. to equip members how to engage trigger and flash points for Peacebuilding What members stand to gain Members will learn the way of peace and love, which is better than violence and hatred Members will become critical thinkers and would see why violence is not a right solution to every conflict Members will spend qualitative times on their studies and preparations for a brighter future life Receive leadership training on nonviolence positive peacemaking, conflict transformation and mediation Become a better leader for tomorrow with a balance view of equal rights, justice and peace, freedom and liberty for everyone Cultivate new lifestyles that promotes peaceful Ethnoreligious co-existence Enjoy the opportunities to receive scholarship to study abroad in Peacebuilding and Conflict Transformation.
