Christian-Muslim Relations (NCCMR)
Welcome to the Network of Centers for Christian-Muslim Relations
We are a constantly growing network of prominent centers of Christian-Muslim relations in Africa, Asia and the MENA region. We envision a world where Christian-Muslim relations are marked by mutual understanding, respect and collaboration for a culture of peace and harmony. Our aim is to connect individuals and organizations, help them share knowledge, exchange living experience, and promote a spirit of mutual learning and curiosity. We seek to build long-term relations and generate workable solutions to real societal challenges.
Diploma in Christian-Muslim Relations
With our host partners at Domuni Universitas, the NCCMR has launched the online ‘Diploma in Christian-Muslim Relations’. The program is taught in the English Language over a period of 12-months; it provides the student with the essential knowledge relating to CMR, and enables them to explore the dynamics and complex relations governing Christian-Muslim relations. The Diploma requires no previous training, and it is highly recommended for students and professionals who look to acquire reliable knowledge in the domain.
