Highlighted Publication

Peacebuilding Through Dialogue: Education, Human Transformation, and Conflict Resolution

This volume examines the many dimensions of dialogue as a key driver of peaceful personal and social change.

The essays collected here consider dialogue in the context of teaching and learning, personal and interpersonal growth, and in conflict resolution and other situations of great change.
