Dear Craig,
we are a training institution offering courses and trainings for civil peace service personnel. Located in Bonn, we are quite well known in Germany and some neighbouring countries. Being a member of the network helps us, to inform peace workers, scholars, and other interested people abroad about our institution and our offers who would usually be hard to reach for us.

In that way, the network creates benefits not only for us but also for those interested in acquiring practical skills for conflict transformation.

Best Regards

Fabian Schuttenberg

Craig,
An excellent resource for me as a student and researcher in human security issues. The news updates, blogs and discussionS have really kept me stay abreast with current issues-a task that is a challenge in this day and age of information overload.

I do support Kadio Ali's suggestion on creating a facility to foster dialogue and exchange for International Volunteers. Their contributions would be valuable as are they are witnesses to political and social developments around the world in real-time...
Thumbs up Craig!

Hello.
My name is Premshay Hermon.
I am a leading member of Cannons And Muses, the international collaboration for artists and academies regarding art's role in real-time crisis.

The Peace and Collaborative Development Network has been a valuable, irreplacable tool for our work to get familiarised with the scholarships, foundations and organisations in the world regarding matters of peace and joint work.

The forums on the website, the "How-To" guides, and the information recieved at the email each day, have proven to be very informative and important.

Interesting contacts have been made, contacts between Israeli and Palestinian people, which would have not been able otherwise.

And, perhaps most importantly, Mr. Zelizer himself is available to answer and guide through the website and this wide web of collaborations. He is truly a gift to us all.

No doubt the Peace and Collaborative Development Newtwork will serve us for years to come.

Kind regards,
Premshay Hermon
Cannons and Muses

Having joined internationalpeaceandconflict.org only recently, I was delighted to receive an email from Nick Martin on the network regarding an extention of the UPEACE deadline application for this year. As this piece of news was not published on UPEACE deadline I would have never found out without this forum, and consequentially couldn't have applied nor been accepted.
Never anticipated seeing tangible results in such a quick time, which compels me to contribute and try to give back some day.

Regards

Sven
