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.

Two-thirds of the world’s Christians and the vast majority of Muslims live in the Majority World. Yet, many local scholars and practitioners have limited access to academic resources and few opportunities for meaningful theological exchange. As the world enters the post-secular age, Christian–Muslim relations are increasingly central to social cohesion, peaceful coexistence, and international relations. #The_Charter #NCCMR
