    I am so excited to be taking this particular course on Understanding conflicts and process of peace resolution. This is so because my beautiful country is currently in serious crisis due to the inability of the government and its citizens to live in peace. So i must sincerely say this course is indeed timely for me. normally, a topic on peace is one everyone needs, cause as humans, we general learn how to live with others on a daily basis. It is a course for both the old and young.

    It is a very exciting course so I am very delighted to hear about peacebuilding and peace education course because it teaches about how to develop peaceful attitudes towards others and how to resolve conflict peacefully and non-violently, and also It teaches about how to live with oneself, others and nature. peace is not merely the absence of war or violence but is a state of mind with oneself, others and nature. therefore, it is very interesting to learn how to develop a culture of peace, and harmonious relationships and peaceful coexistence with others.
