Introduction to the Global Peace Studies
Educational Tourism Institution
بســــــــــــــــــم الله الرحمن الرحيـــــــــــم
Welcome to the Peace Studies Educational Tourism Institution, ISA Global Peace Academy (IGPA) where we merge the timeless wisdom of the Quran with the transformative power of humanitarian action and global engagement. Our mission is to foster a deeper understanding of peace, justice, and global cooperation through educational tourism, offering a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary experience.
Our institution is built on the following core pillars:
Quran-Based
Foundations
At the heart of our programs lies the rich spiritual and ethical guidance of the Quran, which emphasizes peace, justice, and mutual respect among nations. Through Quranic teachings, we explore key themes such as peacebuilding, human dignity, and conflict resolution, providing a foundation for understanding modern-day conflicts and the pathways to harmonious global relations.
Exploring Historical Peacebuilding Sites
Our educational tours take participants to significant historical sites where key moments in peace processes have unfolded. These locations not only have religious and cultural significance but are also rich in lessons about resilience, reconciliation, and cooperation. These immersive experiences allow participants to witness history firsthand and reflect on how past lessons can inform future peace initiatives.
Volunteering and Humanitarian Agendas
We believe in active participation as a means of promoting peace. Our curriculum includes volunteering opportunities in communities that require humanitarian aid, giving participants the chance to make a real-world impact. These volunteer programs are designed to build empathy, encourage social responsibility, and provide firsthand exposure to the challenges faced by marginalized populations around the globe.
Roadmap to Baitul Maqdis Research
As part of our advanced research track, we offer a specialized focus on Baitul Maqdis (IslamicJerusalem), a place that has been central to both religious and geopolitical highlights. Our research initiative delves into the region's unique history, its significance in Islamic faith and traditions, and the contemporary challenges surrounding its status in international relations. Students and researchers are provided with a roadmap for understanding IslamicJerusalem's role in global peace efforts and how historical narratives can shape modern policy and diplomacy.
The ISA Global Peace Academy is more than just a place of learning—it is a transformative journey into understanding the true essence of peace. Through volunteering, exploration, and research, we invite you to embark on a path that not only enriches your knowledge but also empowers you to become an active participant in shaping a peaceful future for all.
Global Norms and International Relations
Our institution offers a unique framework for understanding global peace through the lens of international relations. By analyzing contemporary geopolitical conflicts, we guide students through the intricacies of global norms, diplomacy, and human rights. The program integrates theoretical learning with practical engagement, preparing students to be global citizens who can contribute to the creation of a more peaceful world.
Interdisciplinary Approach
Rooted in the intersection of history, Islamic studies, politics, and international relations, our institution offers an interdisciplinary approach that empowers students to become informed, compassionate leaders in peacebuilding. The combination of Quranic teachings, historical exploration, humanitarian action, and academic inquiry creates a holistic educational experience aimed at fostering lasting global peace.
