What types of violence are peace and policy makers confronted with in conflict settings? How can they peacefully respond to and prevent them?
Many past events show that security force responses are often neither effective nor appropriate. In this issue of à propos, KOFF member organizations provide us insight into cultures of peace and nonviolence. Some focus on social cohesion and inclusion, some advocate for the protection of human rights or the advancement of peace education, and others protect those who advocate.
Wishing you a pleasant read.
