Dear Friends,

Each year grassroots leaders world-wide come to the Coady International Institute to learn how to build peace within their community or in communities elsewhere in the world. With your interest in conflict transformation, I thought it fitting to share with you information about the Institute's Community-Based Conflict Transformation and Peacebuilding certificate. In this program participants learn theories and practices of community-based conflict transformation and peace building. Participants will learn the gender dynamics in peace building approaches; will build skills to analyze root causes of conflict and will learn how to influence public policy. Through this program values and attitudes that nurture a culture of peace and non-violence will be developed and participants will learn techniques in interest-based negotiation and mediation.

 

For a complete description, benefits and who is best suited for this certificate program, visit our website at www.coady.stfx.ca/education/certificates/conflict/.

Applications can be found online at www.coady.stfx.ca/education/apply/ and can be submitted online to coadyadmit@stfx.ca . If you have any questions about this program or any of the other education programs offered at Coady Institute, I encourage you to contact Student Services at coadyreg@stfx.ca.

 

With best wishes on your good work.

Hi friends,

Please check out the School for International Training Graduate Institute of World Learning, they have a MA program in Conflict Transformation.

Dear friend
"Vasudev kutukbkam" entire world is a family, this was a teaching of our indian culture and traditional.
We created countries, boundaries,religions,cast,race for a genuine reason or a false reasons for any reason.But this the time to realize that we are one and naturally interconnected with each other which we can just realize by watching inhale and exhale of our breaths the source is same without any discrimination of religion and boundaries, equally for all living life of universe .When we understand this simple thing then we must understand how our and other's life is equally important, valuable ,respectable .
We should follow the nature's rule ,non violence .peace ,god has given us a human life not for destruction but to look after the wellbeing of all living life.
I shall be happy if we could be a friend.

Do you think it's time to advocate for an international day of peace at work?  If so, please join me to declare Armistice Day at work on May 11, 2011.  I hope to get as many organizations as possible to make a proclamation for peace at work and I hope that you will join me.  On behalf of all employees who have to combat highly tensed and war like situations at work and especially those who lost their lives due to workplace conflicts and escalated violence, Let's declare Armistice Day at Work on May 11, 2011.  Contact me to get the proclamation and ask any organization you know to join our list of forward thinking organizations.

Many of the students in this group may be interested in the academic expeditions we're offering. Get credit for hands-on learning in experiential peacebuilding, community participation in environmental conservation, and so much more. Go to Costa Rica over spring break or the Balkans this summer.
