Connolly, P. and Hayden, J. with Levin, D.
(2007) From Conflict to Prace Building: The Power of Early Childhood
Initiatives - Lessons from Around the World. Redmond, WA: World
Forum Foundation.
This book contains stories of hope and encouragement and of just
what early childhood practitioners can do and achieve in the face
of adversity. From Conflict to Peace Building shows us that it is
possible to make a real difference to the lives of children and
families in societies affected by conflict. Moreover, the stories
illustrate the power of the early years sector not only as a foundation
stone upon which to re-build communities but also as a vehicle for
peace building because of its ability to reach across political
divides and to encourage the differing sides in conflict to develop
alternative visions of the future based around the needs of children.
This is the first publication of the International Working Group
on Peace Building with Young Children. Further information on the
Group can be found at: www.peacebuildingwithyoungchildren.org
