What is Peacebuilding?
Peace is…
Peace is not just the absence of war, it means dignity, safety, and well-being for all.
How peace is defined is different for everyone and it can range from being happy in ourselves and seeing the smiling faces of our loved ones, to conflict resolution within a community and ending violence and harmful practices around the world.
Peacebuilding is…
Peacebuilding is about dealing with the reasons why people fight and supporting people to manage their differences and conflicts in a non-violent way. It is very important to develop positive, personal and group relationships across different races, beliefs, cultures and classes. Understanding why people are different and why this is valuable and important helps us all to live in harmony.
