COLLOQUY: PEACE EDUCATION IN CONFLICT-RIDDEN SOCIETIES.

Civil Conflict, Education, and the Work of Schools: Twelve Propositions (James H.Williams)

International Education and Conflict: Empowering Individuals, Transforming Societies, and Making Waves—An Interview with Jane Benbow from CARE (Susan S. Raines)

CARE is one of the world’s largest humanitarian organizations and has great experience with societies working through civil conflicts. Benbow explains to the interviewer how conflict is common at every stage of the education process and how fundamentals of education, like literacy, may be more critical for some societies than what we perceive as peace education efforts.

In Their Own Words: Contextualizing the Discourse of (War) Trauma and Healing (Al B. Fuertes)

One of the most compelling areas of peace education work is helping individuals and communities traumatized by interethnic conflicts. Fuertes describes some of the work he has done in this area and help us understand how sensitivity to the participants’ discourse about conflict reveals the frames they use and their orientations to interventions such as peace education.

Bridging Theory and Practice in Peace Education: The Notre Dame University Peace Education Experience (Benedicto R.Bacani)

Bacani, the dean of that program, explains the genesis of the program, its context and content, and the best practices learned through their experience that may be applied to similar efforts by other institutions.

Conflict and Education: Some Personal Reflections (Dennis J.D. Sandole)

Sandole brings the colloquy to a close with a consideration of the conflict- Realpolitik and peace education–Idealpolitik connections. He articulates the nexus between conflict education and policy and suggests analytic approaches to further our understanding of this relationship.
