"I wish that the Resolving
Conflict Creatively Program could be taught in every classroom in America, because
we are not going to deal with the violence in our communities, our homes, and
our nation, until we learn to deal with the basic ethic of how we resolve our
disputes and to place an emphasis on peace in the way we relate to one another."

We need to learn and to
show others that there are tried and tested, powerful ways of containing and resolving
conflict which do not require the use of force. -- Scilla

More
and more individuals worldwide are realizing that war does not solve conflict,
nor resolve long-standing cycles of violence. As more of those who have this understanding
communicate it to policy-makers and more particularly, start implementing it in
their own lives and localities, change will start to happen.
-- Scilla
Elworthy
If
governments were kind, they'd realize that conficts are resolved and wars prevented
not by armies but by ordinary people.
