Commemorating the International Day for Victims of Acts of Violence Based on Religion or Belief Today, we pause to honour and remember the countless victims who have suffered acts of violence simply because of their religion or beliefs. At IDFP, we understand the critical role that faith leaders and communities can play in transforming conflict and building peace. Through our Early Warning and Early Response (EWER) project themed "Mediation and Interreligious Dialogue for State-Level Religious Actors," we have established interreligious mediation units that empower religious leaders to become peacemakers in their communities. In a world where religion is often misused to incite violence and fear, it's vital to recognize and amplify the other side of the coin—where religion is a force for peace, reconciliation, and healing. As we remember the victims, let's commit to being voices of compassion and agents of peace. Let's work together to build a world where faith is not a reason for division but a source of unity and hope. #endreligiousviolence #promotepeace #unityindiversity #peacebuilding #idfp

Celebrating World Humanitarian Day with IDFP On this World Humanitarian Day, we reflect on the power of compassion and the critical role we all play in building a more just and peaceful world. At IDFP, our mission is rooted in fostering unity, respect, and understanding across communities, and our COVID-19 project in Nigeria is a testament to this commitment. Through the "Demonstration, Sensitization, and Distribution of Protective Items" initiative, we joined hands with religious and community leaders to protect lives and promote awareness. Our work isn't just about responding to crises—it's about upholding our core values of honesty, integrity, and justice in everything we do. Let's continue to work together to make a difference, one act of kindness at a time. #WorldHumanitarianDay #ActForHumanity #IDFP #peacebuilding #Unity #COVID19Response
