RSSNews from our Partners – Complementing Dialogue Issue 6 on Systemic Conflict Transformation
George Wachira of the Nairobi Peace Initiative recounts the peacebuilding activities of Concerned Citizens for Peace in Kenya, in “Citizens in Action. Making Peace in the Post-Election Crisis in Kenya – 2008”, co-published by the Global Partnership for the Prevention of Armed Conflict (GPPAC).
His account complements the reflections of another member of Concerned Citizens for Peace, Dekha Ibrahim Abdi, who contributed to Berghof Handbook Dialogue No 6 on A Systemic Approach to Conflict Transformation.
We think: an insight into the many small steps (forward and sideways) that are necessary to transform violence into peacebuilding potential, and a reminder that it takes people who take responsibility and mindful action!
Note: Dialogue 6 has just been reprinted; hard copies therefore remain available for ordering at the Berghof Center.
