Download or read book Building Peace from Within written by Maphosa, Sylvester B. and published by Africa Institute of South Africa. This book was released on 2014-02-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to examine how successful models of building 'peace from within' in the African context function. It draws emerging lessons to provide critical recommendations on policy, practice and academia - our primary audience. While there are numerous examples of failures of conflict resolution in Africa, shown by intractable conflict axes, less attention is paid to successes. While acknowledging the challenges that exist, this edited volume provides positive examples of building peace from within in fragile contexts through many forms of initiatives and actions at different levels: community-based (through individual and/or collective local peace initiatives), government (through ministries and/or departments), and regional (through external and/or multilateral infrastructure for peace). As a guiding principle the notion of building peace from within draws from the idea of community regeneration, which describes voluntary and peaceful activities of grassroots actors that reflect their broader interests of building peaceful communities and existence.

Book excerpt: In the midst of the chaos of this world and the fast pace of life, it is easy to let worry and fear overwhelm us and leave us stressed. In our ordinary daily lives anxious thoughts can leave us feeling we must be the only one who thinks like this. However, there is One who brings unshakable peace in the midst of our trials and ever-changing lives. Four writers who had never met in person, took a risk and joined a writers mastermind via Zoom during a global pandemic. In the process of sharing their projects, they shared their successes, their losses, their struggles, and lives with each other. This devotion was birthed after a season of quarantines, personal losses, and milestone life changes and the desire to share the hope each of these women have in Jesus. The authors invite you to join them as they look at what Scripture teaches about lasting peace. They walk with you through 12 devotionals and encourage you to dig deeper in your own personal study time to see what God has to say about the lasting peace He offers. Invite a small group to join with you as you learn to keep your heart anchored to the ultimate source of peace.
