The Center for Transformative Education, a new educational initiative launched by Abraham's Vision, is an innovative training institute aimed at creating academic and practical educational programs to transform societies into their potential. Utilizing the expertise that Abraham's Vision has gained in the fields of experiential education and conflict transformation since their establishment in 2003.

CTE conflict transformation and resolution educational models are rooted in western and local-cultural methodologies of working with groups in conflict, thereby creating a groundbreaking organic model of facilitation that can be used in any conflict setting.

Our programs' goals are to:

(1) educate students about social relations between and within communities, including issues such as identity, social inequalities, and power relations.

(2) educate students about locals' cultures and traditions as related to conflict transformation.

(3) train students to be professional facilitators to work with groups in conflict.

(4) empower students to mobilize their communities to practice just alternatives to the status quo.
 

In 2009, our first year of programming, we are focusing on two training programs that prepare students to become practitioners in working with groups in conflict, a facilitation training course and a comparative conflict analysis and transformation course.
