Youth at the Heart of Peace Work

Building peace means contemplating a peaceful future, thinking about better ways for the peoples of a community to live together, initiating processes to address the sources of conflict, analysing past grievances and implementing actions for more stability and justice. Can we build the future without youth? This brochure addresses the role of African youth in peace work, the hurdles and sources of potential.

The CPS networks in Africa place particular emphasis on working with young people. You may already have read articles about peace work by and with young people in other publications in the “Building Peace” series. What has impressed us most in the contributions to this publication are the courageous and creative initiatives and the central role played by artistic expression and culture, or, to be more precise, the multiplicity of cultures. The strengths and challenges of the multi-cultural aspect of the Civil Peace Service’s work are richly illustrated in the wide range of articles.
