INDIA


I’ve done conflict transformation (CT) work in India for over a decade. Most of my work has been with the Nagas in northeast India (Nagaland and Manipur). I’ve also facilitated trainings with the Council of Baptist Churches in Northeast India, working with many different ethnic groups. I’ve done CT training programs in Delhi, including with Chin refugees from Myanmar. More recently I’ve been involved in peace-building and trauma healing in Orissa (just southwest of Calcutta) where Hindu militants have been killing Christians, destroying hundreds of churches and thousands of homes.
