REJEFIR / YOUNIB AFRICA (YOUTH NETWORK FOR INTERRELIGIOUS BROTHERHOOD)

The Youth Network for the Interreligious Brotherhood (YOUNIB) is a youth interfaith peace movement initiated by the Congregation of the Assumptionnist Fathers through an Assumptionnist Catholic religious Priest, Reverend Father SIMO MABOU. It exist in order to

  • Build with, through and for the youth on the noble and generous initiative of a common world a historic milestone in interfaith relations
  • Create a space in which Christian and Muslim youths and those of good will from all faiths and none can meet in common affirmation of love of God and of a neighbor, an affirmation that is the core of our humanity
  • Impart to our African younger generation the truth that it is possible for them to build a culture of harmony, peace, tolerance, brotherhood and mutual respect among cultures and religions in Africa and in a world too often marked by fear, mistrust, tribalism, hostility and religious intolerance based on ignorance.
MOTTO

Youth Ever The Best and United for Peace (YET B UP)

Our greeting: EVER THE BEST … looking up and touching the neighbor’s thumb, smiling. By this gesture it is for everyone to give the best around oneself. To work to see in the other not a rival or an enemy to fight and kill but a brother, a sister to love, to raise and to raise. The best project is to defuse the young in the balls of rivalry, of selfish interest, of struggle for destructive ends. And this is why the association insists on the truth that there is no question of being better than others (it is not a quarrel), but of being better than oneself and to work to make others better.
