• You can't build peace if you're not educated in peace and if you don't educate peace. Because peace is a mature fruit with many aspects to it. It doesn't come as a spontaneous reaction. Often building peace means first overcoming many difficulties: tensions, problems, diverse positions. So without training, without peace education that involves feelings and thought processes, peace won't get built. Or it may get built, but on very shaky foundations. There's no peace without peace education.
