The Multicultural Peace and Justice Collaborative

Undergraduate Lab Application for Research Assistants

The Multicultural Peace and Justice Collaborative (The MultiPJC) is intentionally multicultural in membership and foci, and seeks to understand:

Peace (1) within self, (2) with other individuals, (3) with groups and nations, and (4) with humanity

Biblical and Social Justice for the marginalized and oppressed through (1) self-examination, (2) consciousness-raising, (3) advocacy, (4) liberation, and (5) empowerment

Students (1) assist faculty, (2) assist peers, and (3) complete first-author publications/ conference presentations. The MultiPJC uses various approaches to science [1. qualitative-experimental–ex post facto, 2. rigor–relevance (i.e., internal vs. external validity), and 3. exploratory–confirmatory continuums], and is broadly focused on how science, faith, practice, diversity, peace, and justice intersect. Please see the website for further information.
