The Mindanao Peacebuilding Institute's Virtual Peacebuilding Training Program complements MPI’s in-person Annual Peacebuilding Training Program and extends MPI’s role as a resource to peacebuilders through digital technologies. Our virtual learning platform has been developed to enable MPI to widen its reach and deepen its impact on individuals and communities, enabling them to become empowered to continue building just and peaceful communities in Asia-Pacific and beyond.

MPI’s Virtual Peacebuilding Training Program offers both introductory and advanced or thematic courses. The high-quality and passionate facilitators, some who have had years of experience with the Annual Peacebuilding Training and others who are new to MPI, bring their knowledge and skills to these virtual courses. MPI utilizes new technologies and tools in both synchronous learning—the Zoom sessions with the facilitators and participants—and asynchronous learning in the Virtual Classrooms. Through this program, grassroots peacebuilders continue to hone their skills and build on their experience and knowledge in order to be of greater service to their organization and the communities in which they work.

MPI 2023 Virtual Peacebuilding Training is now underway. It may be too late to apply for this year, but you can still read about the course that was offered from October to December 2023. We hope you can join us next time.
