Coexistence and Conflict

Posted on May 13 2014 under Peace and Values, Previous Programs

Managing inter-communal conflict and violence is critical to national and international security in today’s world. As societies are becoming more diverse, many more countries are facing ethnic, religious, cultural and social conflicts. The globalization of such conflicts is also increasing. Mari Fitzduff, the Program Director of the Coexistence and Conflict program at The Heller School of Social Policy and Management at Brandeis University is our guest expert.

Listener Assignment: To break through the barriers and learn how to coexist with someone so different from yourself, we suggest you take this challenge. Sit down with someone you might find difficult to listen to…maybe someone of a different faith or cultural background and engage them in a conversation with the intent of being curious. This is not about a debate. Or, visit a Mosque or Temple and just sit and listen.  Leave your comments about your experiences.
