During the past five years, the faculty of the International Education for Peace Institute (EFP-International), in the course of the application of the Institute’s Education for Peace program within 108 primary and secondary schools, reaching some 100,000 students and their teachers in Bosnia and Herzegovina, have developed a unique and highly effective approach to addressing the serious effects of violence on whole populations. This approach aims at creating a Culture of Healing in and between the participating populations, that until recently have been engaged in a brutal war. Participants in this workshop will: Learn the dynamics of individual and collective processes of recovery from the impact of violence on populations; Acquire the necessary skills for creating a culture of healing; and Be assisted with developing models of cultures of healing appropriate to the specific needs of the communities in which they are rooted. The Leadership for Peace (LFP) program is an intensive training workshop designed to address the fundamental challenges to constructive leadership by equipping the participants and leaders with the necessary knowledge, insights, and skills required for effective, inspiring, and unifying leadership. This will enable leaders at every level in society to engage all members of their respective communities and agencies in the pursuit of excellence and in the creation of a vibrant, productive, and peaceful environment—free from destructive conflict, disuniting and self-interested behaviour, aggression, and violence.

April 11 - 15, 2005 - American Educational Research Association (“AERA”) Annual Meeting, Montreal, Canada. Theme: "Demography and Democracy in the Era of Accountability" . The Peace Education Special Interest Group (SIG) provides a forum within AERA for the involvement of individuals drawn together by a common interest in peace education -- teaching, and research. The primary responsibility of the Peace Education SIG to the Association is to maintain a professional support system for its SIG membership consistent with the purpose of the Association as a whole. In this Peace Education SIG symposium, specific peace education problems will be examined by invited guests from a variety of perspectives. Contrasting points of view on peace education are invited in relation to teachers teaching about peace-the challenges of peacemaking, peacebuilding, and peacekeeping in local and international schooling contexts. The symposium will take the form of a panel discussion targeting teaching peace in the schools. Panel members are expected to prepare a commentary paper addressing central questions regarding the teaching of peace in classrooms at home and around the world. The American Educational Research Association includes a membership of educational researchers who seek to enhance their collective knowledge and understanding in ways that can inform educational policy and practice. As a research organization, AERA provides forums for critical self-reflection on the credibility of research claims and plays a leading role in educating and informing the public about educational research, as well as in bringing relevant research-based perspectives to public dialogue about educational issues. The American Educational Research Association (AERA), a professional society that represents more than 23,000 educators who conduct research and evaluation in education, offers a comprehensive program of scholarly publications, training, fellowships, and meetings to disseminate research findings and improve the profession. Founded in 1916, AERA is based in Washington, D.C. The theme for the 2005 AERA Annual Meeting, "Demography and Democracy in the Era of Accountability," is intended to promote such examination from all research paradigms and perspectives. Program organizers welcome the full range of perspectives on these critical issues from researchers in the United States and the larger international community. We are particularly interested in proposals that consider the implications for democratic and emerging democratic societies of research, practice and policy related to quality education and fair assessments for all students. For more information: Please see the AERA website at http://www.aera.net for extensive conference information and instructions for registration.

June 23-26, 2005 - The Transformative Learning Centre (OISE/UT) Summer Institute 2005 is proud to announce the course: African Values, Peace and Reconciliation.
Africa is all too often portrayed in a one-dimensional way as a continent of victims, poverty and continual warfare. In this course we will attempt to gain a more complete picture of the situation and to appreciate the transformative potential that exists. Looking at Africa from an Afrocentric, rather than a Eurocentric perspective, we will examine what has been lost in the historical and contemporary context of slavery, colonialism and economic globalization. Africa has a rich store of values, attitudes and practices conducive to peace and reconciliation. We will critically examine these traditional ideas to look at how they can be integrated with useful modern practices
to make a contribution to a peaceful world. Consistent with the subject matter, the class will make use of practices often excluded from the dominant discourse, for example story-telling, proverbs and music. Course Instructor: Anne Goodman, Ph.D. Course Schedule: Thursday, June 23, 6-9 pm, Friday, June 24, 6-9 pm, Saturday, June 25, 10:00 am-5:00 pm. Sunday, June 26, 10:00 am-5:00 pm, TOTAL HOURS: 20 hours. Place: Transformative Learning Centre, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, 252 Bloor Street West. Regular Registration Fee (before April 31st): $125 per participant; Late Registration Fee (after May 1st): $175 per participant. Enrolment is limited to 24 participants.

"For now the appalling truth is that there has been no remedy for the documented torture and killing of foreign prisoners by this American government." War Crimes, The Washington Post | Editorial, Thursday 23 December 2004 http://www.truthout.org/docs_04/122404B.shtml
“Bush did confront (Canadian Prime Minister) Martin and used the sort of language that sets Canadians on edge. "He leaned across the table and said, 'I'm not taking this position, but some future president is going to say, 'Why are we paying to defend Canada?' " said the senior Canadian official who was in the room and noted that he had been assured by Rice and Secretary of State Colin L. Powell personally that Bush would avoid the subject.” By Peter Baker, Washington Post Staff Writer, Sunday, January 23, 2005; Page A01
“Every time intellectuals have the chance to speak yet do not speak, they join the forces that train people not to be able to think and imagine and feel in morally and politically adequate ways. When they do not demand that the secrecy that makes elite decisions absolute and unchangeable be removed, they too are part of the passive conspiracy to kill off public scrutiny. When they do not speak, when they do not demand, when they do not think and feel and act as intellectuals – and so as public individuals – they too contribute to the moral paralysis, the intellectual rigidity, that now grip both leaders and led around the world.” C. Wright Mills (1958)

At Home in the World: Canada's Global Vision for the 21st Century, by Jennifer Welsh. "In order for Canada to play a new part on the global stage in the 21st century, we need to shed some of the traditional myths that have dominated our international identity for the past half-century. We should conceive of Canada not in traditional terms, as a middle power, but as a citizen in the world of nation-states. In fact, I believe Canada has the potential to be a model citizen for the 21st century. Both words—"model" and "citizen"—are crucial to my vision. First, the notion of a model suggests a different approach to effecting change. A crucial aspect of Canadian foreign policy today is simply being what we are: a particular, and highly successful, model of liberal democracy."

The Best Country: Why Canada Will Lead the Future, by Satya Das. Canadians are characteristically surprised when the United Nations consistently places Canada at or near the top of the list of its annual Human Development Index. They shouldn't be. One of the world's most "spectacularly diverse nations", Canada has much to be proud of, and much to share with the rest of the world. This country is home to a tolerant, multicultural society; to a strong, developed democracy; and to a nation proud of its national and international accomplishments. In his newest book The Best Country - Why Canada Will Lead the Future, acclaimed author Satya Das makes a case for Canadian global leadership, sharing the best of itself with a world that seems to have lost its way. While recognizing Canada's flaws and struggles, The Best Country argues the Canadian experience can be a role-model for the rest of the world. http://www.mastersandscribes.com/item667.htm http://www.cambridgestrategies.com/
The Naked Corporation: How the Age of Transparency Will Revolutionize Business, by Don Tapscott and David Ticoll. If you have to be naked, you had better be buff. We are entering an extraordinary age of transparency, where businesses must for the first time make themselves clearly visible to shareholders, customers, employees, partners, and society. Financial data, employee grievances, internal memos, environmental disasters, product weaknesses, international protests, scandals and policies, good news and bad; all can be seen by anyone who knows where to look. Welcome to the world of the naked corporation. Transparency is revolutionizing every aspect of our economy and its industries and forcing firms to rethink their fundamental values. Don Tapscott, bestselling author and one of the most sought after strategists and speakers in the business world, is famous for seeing into the future and pointing out both its forest and its trees. David Ticoll, visionary researcher, columnist, and consultant, has identified countless breakthrough trends at the intersection of technology and business strategy. These two longtime collaborators now offer a brilliant guide to the new age of openness. In The Naked Corporation, they explain how the new transparency has caused a power shift toward customers, employees, shareholders, and other stakeholders; how and where information has exploded; and how corporations across many industries have seized on transparency not as a challenge but as an opportunity. The Naked Corporation is a book for managers, employees, investors, customers, and anyone who cares about the future of the corporation, government, education and society. A new age is upon us, and you can either work with it and thrive, or fight it and die. http://www.nakedcorporation.com/
Women Waging Peace and International Alert Joint Publication— Inclusive Security, Sustainable Peace: A Toolkit for Advocacy and Action. A resource for women peace builders and practitioners to effectively promote peace and security. Women Waging Peace and International Alert collaborated to produce the Toolkit, which outlines the components of peace building from conflict prevention to post-conflict reconstruction, highlights the role that women play in each phase, and is directed to women peace builders and the policy community. Download the Toolkit: Click on the links at http://www.womenwagingpeace.net/toolkit.asp to download sections of the toolkit. If you would like a hard copy, please email: policycommission@womenwagingpeace.net . The main goals of the Toolkit are to:
· overview critical information and strategies for addressing key peace and security issues;
· bridge the divide between the realities of peace activists in conflict, post-conflict, and transition areas, and the international practitioners and policymakers responsible for designing and implementing programs in these contexts;
· present issues in a user-friendly manner and demystify the "policy speak" and terminology used by the international community;
· describe how women are affected by and contribute to peacemaking, peace building, and security processes; and
· highlight practical examples of women's contributions and offer concrete, feasible steps for fostering their empowerment.
A key measure of our success will be the extent to which activists, policymakers, and others use, develop, and take ownership of this resource.

Inspiring Quotes http://www.peace.ca/inspiringquotations.htm :
"Ubuntu", Humanist Declaration - It's a Bantu word we should make our own. It is so rich that linguists call a "crowditude" of other words to the rescue to express its nuances. "Ubuntu" is, in academic terms: "the quality inherent in the fact of being a person with other persons." When he uses it in his autobiography, Nelson Mandela translates it into English as "fellowship," literally camaraderie or, in the context "fellow citizenship." In fact, ubuntu means much more, well beyond that: a way of being human, a way of conducting oneself as a human being, a practice of mutual humanity. Also, far from being simplistic, Mandela's translation is at the heart of South African political invention, that unprecedented response anti-apartheid militants brought to the question every liberation poses: how to live together after hatred, after civil war, after crime against humanity? How to reconnect there where there was nothing but separation? We know their response: by reconciling oneself to the truth. It will soon be ten years ago that the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, chaired by Mgr. Desmond Tutu, was established by the South African Constitutive Assembly in 1995. Its power: to bestow individual amnesty, case by case, in exchange for complete revelation of their crimes, to the authors of serious violations of human rights associated with a political objective. No vengeance, no reprisals, but no oblivion, no getting off, no concealment. "Facing up" says the 1993 South African Provisional Constitution, to "a heritage of hatred, of fear" on the basis of a "need for ubuntu and not victimization."
