Dear Peace Educators,
I am Associate Editor of The PeaceWorker. We are doing a special Back to Peace Education School theme for our September issue and would love your pieces (300-1,000 words–due date is August 12–send to me, please). The audience is a literate peace-oriented readership who may know little about Peace and Conflict Studies. They will be interested in pieces such as (but not limited to):
How we started a Peace and Conflict Studies undergrad major
Why we started a Peace Studies masters program
How I work Peace Studies into my 4th grade curricula despite NCLB
Why Peace and Conflict Studies should be taught at every grade level
Career tracks for Peace and Conflict Studies majors
Career tracks for Conflict Resolution graduates
A day in the life of a Peace Studies professor
How Peace and Conflict Studies changed our institution
How Peace Studies can convert a war system to a peace system
Ten lies our students used to believe before Peace Studies
How my student changed our town
Imagine a well-funded Peace and Conflict Studies program
Helping our students help the movement
Can peace be taught?
Should peace be taught?
Our students have a better analysis than mainstream media pundits
Yours for a nonviolent future,
Tom H. Hastings
