If you don’t have a question, write “no question.” Optional: Find a major news website and count the headlines. How many are about a "collision" (conflict) and how many are about a "cohesion" (cooperation)? If you were the editor, what "boring" act of peace from your own community would you put on the front page? Learning Topics: The Conflict Bias: Why the media prioritizes "collisions" over "cohesion;” The Sudan/Chad Case Study: How geopolitical influence dictates media visibility; The WHO Health for Peace Initiative: Understanding health as a peacebuilding bridge; New Diplomacy: The roles of Qatar, Türkiye, and other mediators in non-binary conflicts; The Architecture of News: Understanding peace as an organic, slow-moving process.
