This Handbook explores the ways in which religion among the African
people has been applied in situations of conflict and violence to
contribute to sustainable peace and development. It analyzes how
peacebuilding inspired and enabled by religion serves as the
foundation for sustainable development in Africa, while also
acknowledging that religion can also be a tool of destruction, and
can be used to fuel violence and underdevelopment. Contributors to
this volume offer theoretical discussions from existing literature,
as well as experiences of practitioners, to deepen the readers’
understanding on the role of religion and religious institutions in
peacebuilding and development in Africa. The Handbook provides
reflections on possible future developments as well, thereby
aligning with the goals of SDG 16.
