Give Peace a Chance

In this article, Kundu suggests that youth have a major role in helping create a culture of peace and non-violence in South Asian countries. Kundu provides illustrations of several youth-related projects and includes feedback from leaders involved in peace initiatives. Some key observations include: the strength of supporting youth as "ambassadors of peace" by creating youth exchanges in "safe" settings; the usefulness of recognising different religions as a potential obstacle and thus sharing knowledge and information about different religions; and the importance of creating dialogue spaces for youth who are geographically and economically separated.
