Hekima University College

Founded in 1984 as a school of theology by the Major Superiors of the Society of Jesus in Africa.

Its central aim and purpose was to provide a first theological formation at University level for Jesuit students preparing for Priesthood. Hekima College first opened its doors as a Jesuit School of Theology to a handful of students, mainly belonging to the Society of Jesus (Jesuits), in 1984. From its inception, Hekima College has had as its leitmotif the quest for "truth versus any form of ideol

ogy, the struggle for freedom versus any type of oppression, and the promotion of justice and peace versus any form of social disorder." Hekima College is a campus of the Catholic University of Eastern Africa.

Ask yourself this: when conflict arises around you, at work, in your community, in your country, do you have the tools to respond with wisdom, courage, and skill?

Most of us were never taught how to handle conflict effectively. We either avoid it, escalate it, or feel helpless in the face of it. But peacebuilding is a skill, and like every skill, it can be learned.

That is exactly what our Peace Leader Course is designed to do.

In just 3 weeks online, you will go through an intensive, practical learning journey structured around three core pillars:
🔹 Self-Awareness, because peace starts from within
🔹 Conflict Resolution, because you need more than good intentions
🔹 Servant & Peace Leadership, because the world needs leaders who serve.

This is not just a course. It is a formation experience rooted in the Jesuit tradition of holistic education, one that challenges you to grow not just professionally, but as a person.

🔹Dates: July 6–29, 2026
🔹Mode: Online only

Are you ready to become the peace leader your community needs? Apply today.
