B19 The Politics of a Peace Department
Room: MA 742
Norwegian Peace Association and WILPF Norway
Peace in a process. What must be done to have peace and nonviolence as part of local, regional and international culture of conflict resolution? In this workshop some of the methods used in Alternative to Violence Project (AVP) /HIPP –training will be presented. The workshop will use the shared experience of participants, interactive exercises, games and roleplays to examine and discuss ways our culture can benefit from putting nonviolent peace culture on the agenda. A culture of peace will give people nonviolent tools to solve conflicts. This must be transferred to all parts of our society.
