Overview Conceived as the title for an international symposium in 1996, Agenda for Reconciliation (AfR) has grown into a global network active in conflict prevention and reconciliation. Its annual conferences at Caux, in Switzerland, offer participants coming from situations of tension and conflict a safe space and the opportunity to learn from one another.
AfR’s work and its conferences are based on the assertion that:
Healing the past must become the common practice of the 21st Century.
Forgiveness and Reconciliation, along with a search for more just solutions, form the basis of sustainable peace.
The causes of conflict such as corruption, poverty, disease and oppression need to be addressed in a comprehensive human security approach.
