… EDUCATION FOR PEACE …<\/p>\n

An article from the International Peace Institute<\/a><\/p>\n

The definition of peace has shifted in the United Nations community from the absence of conflict to a more active, \u201cpositive peace.\u201d Looking at peace from this perspective requires a shift in focus from identifying and combating the causes of wars to understanding the factors that foster peace and inclusivity. To view a holistic perspective of peace, it is necessary to explore the connections among culture, peace, security, and development.<\/p>\n
