North East India (NEI) has experienced several violent ethnic conflicts over the past few decades. Ethnic identity claims of rightful ownership of land and assertion of political rights are the common driving causes for the violent conflicts in the region. Sadly, some of the ethnic conflicts were conflicts between Christians of different ethnic groups. In most of the conflicts, Christians became involved to de-escalate the tension, to resolve the conflicts in a peaceful manner, and to promote peaceful coexistence with one another. This essay examines some of the Christian peacebuilding initiatives in the region.
