Abstract

The final chapter examines how education empowers people to exercise their will and contribute to the well-being of their communities, which in turn contributes to the movement from conflict to sustainable peace. Collaborative learning and relational responsibility are key principles of such education. Collaborative learning, reinforced by the principle of relational responsibility, centers on dialogue and interaction as vehicles with which to achieve collective understanding and individual insight. Educators and students become jointly responsible for education in which all can participate and grow. After a theoretical discussion on collaborative learning and relational responsibility, this chapter presents implications for practice, research, and policy in the conflict-resolution field. It concludes with some thoughts on peace.
