University Chapters

MBB University Chapters are groups of passionate and dedicated graduate level students who have come together to form a student organization to support and participate in MBB activities, goals, and projects. They are joined by faculty advisors and MBB Mediator Members who assist with educational and mentoring activities.

The main focus of MBB University Chapters is on educational activities in the local community, including raising public awareness of peace building processes and initiatives. University Chapters are also assigned (or they choose) a specific country to research and create relationships with educational institutions and NGOs operating in the country. There may be opportunities for internships and other field experiences.

For more information about University Chapters such as FAQ, protocols, policies and funding, visit our Start a Chapter section.
