Nevertheless, acts of violence occur time and again in the name of or under the guise of religion. In Nigeria, for example, the Islamist terrorist militia Boko Haram is poisoning the climate between Christians and Muslims. In Indonesia, which has the largest Muslim population in the world, many young people are becoming radicalized. Mission 21 offers young people in Africa, Asia and Latin America a perspective for the future through numerous educational programs and thus works to counter radicalization. Interreligious peace work is one of the core topics in Mission 21's personnel development cooperation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/en\/what-we-do\/projects-and-partners\/project\/interreligious-peace-work-in-nigeria-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u25ba Project interreligious peace work in Nigeria<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/en\/what-we-do\/projects-and-partners\/project\/interreligious-cooperation-for-peace-and-justice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u25ba interreligious cooperation for peace and justice<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/en\/projects\/education-for-social-change-in-latin-america\/\">\u25ba interreligious dialogue in the South Andean region<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/csm_kurse_erwachsene_bd1f167a22-900x675.jpg\" alt=\"csm courses adults bd1f167a22\" height=\"675\" width=\"900\" title=\"csm_Kurse_Erwachsene_bd1f167a22\" \/>\n<h2>\n\t\t Continuing education in Switzerland \n\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>Together with our partners, we work for interreligious peace in Switzerland.

Most of them were members of the EYN church, Mission 21's partner church. Almost 100 young women are still in the grip of Boko Haram. Each April 14, Mission 21 recalls the act, remembers the victims of terror, fanaticism and radicalism, and provides information about interfaith peace work.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\tHuman Rights Day\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>On the occasion of International Human Rights Day on December 10, Mission 21 carries out an advocacy campaign in Switzerland each year, calling for commitment to interreligious peace and to the human right of religious freedom.

Four large posters attracted the attention of passers-by. They showed women and men from four continents who are committed to helping others with a lot of heart and expertise. By taking a photo from an instant camera, many interested people expressed their solidarity with people who are working for peace and justice under difficult conditions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<h3>2017<\/h3>\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/csm_aktuelle_kampagne_95aa72b8aa.jpg\" alt=\"csm current campaign 95aa72b8aa\" title=\"csm_Current_Campaign_95aa72b8aa\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<p>On December 10, 2017, Mission 21 brought together Christian, Muslim and Jewish representatives at Basel Cathedral.
