From Conflict to Peace Building

The members of the World Forum's International Working Group and Peace Building and Young Children shared their dramatic stories in From Conflict to Peace Building: The Power of Early Childhood Initiatives — Lessons from Around the World.  This book contains stories of hope and encouragement and shows us that it is possible to make a real difference in the lives of children and families in societies affected by conflict.  Moreover, the stories illustrate the power of the early years sector, not only as a foundation stone upon which to re-build communities, but also as a vehicle for peace building because of its ability to reach across political divides and to encourage the differing sides in conflict to develop alternative visions of the future based around the needs of children.
