People Building Peace
35 Inspiring Stories from Around the World
Description:... "In the past decade the number of peace-builders working at all levels of society in places of ethnic and civil conflicts around the world, has mushroomed. The contribution of civilians, whether working from the bottom up or the top down, to resolving the conflicts of our time can no longer be ignored. Churches, women's organisations, the media, and business have all demonstrated their potential for building peace. So too the role of schools, the arts and sports is gaining increasing recognition. 'Multi-track diplomacy', as it is called, is flourishing, and provides a major reason for hope of a more peaceful world. This book shows why." -- back cover.
