Full Description
This open access book provides a compelling case study within the field of Peace and Conflict Studies, particularly in the areas of gender, community dynamics, and sustainable peace. Through the analysis of a grassroots platform for reconciliation, the project demonstrates how people-centered approaches that reflect the lived experiences of communities can complement, or even challenge, traditional, top-down models of peacebuilding. The integration of social, psychological, and cultural dimensions into peace efforts is particularly important in contexts where formal peace processes have faltered or failed, highlighting how community-driven initiatives can strengthen resilience and foster long-term stability.
This project opens broader avenues for peace researchers to explore the power of local ownership and the potential for grassroots movements to contribute to both national and international peacebuilding efforts. This gender-sensitive analysis invites researchers to rethink the way peace is built, sustained, and experienced at the grassroots level, and underscores the necessity of adopting context-specific approaches to conflict resolution.
