Peace, Justice, and Intercultural Conflict Transformation Minor
Mission
The mission of the Peace, Justice, and Intercultural Conflict Transformation minor (formerly Social Justice, Human Rights, and Conflict Transformation minor) at Biola is to equip students with the unique tools for advocacy that they will need to effectively engage in integral mission marked by both the proclamation and demonstration of the Gospel to the "lost," the "least" and the "last." The minor encourages participants to carefully consider how our proclamation has social consequences and our social involvement has evangelistic consequences.
