Great meeting on you on this site. Would love to be in correspondence with you. I am new in peace building - having just returned from the African Peace Building Institute in Zambia.

At 1:25pm on March 9, 2009, Andria Durney said…: Dear Alistair,
Thanks so much for the tips - I had actually come across Lederach's book (have just read snippets) and thought that is a "must buy" book! I'll join up the sites you suggested, too. Thanks again!
Cheers,
Andria

I notice that you posted some info re the Centre for Dialogue and other peace studies unis in Oz. Am beginning my PhD in anthropology entitled: "Indigenous Peacebuilding Through Art: Hunter Region" and have never done any peace studies before (nor has my supervisor!!). Can you recommend any essential reading for peacebuilding (eg essential ingredients, how to evaluate its sustainability etc, Indigenous case studies...). Good luck with your forced migration work, too.
Cheers,
Andria Durney
