Publisher's Description:

Amidst a raging war in Central Mindanao and the historical biases and prejudices between Muslims and Christians, peace education as a curricular offering, pioneered by Notre Dame University, seeks to educate students to be more open and tolerant of diversity and to promote active nonviolence as an effective means for positive change.

Being a pacifist between wars is as easy as being a vegetarian between meals. -- Ammon Hennacy
