Healing a Country’s Wounds (Pt. 3)

On this edition, PEACE TALKS RADIO continues its series on Healing a Country's Wounds by talking about the strategy of Community Building. Past Peace Talks Radio programs in this series on how a Country can Heal its wounds were on Transitional Justice which uses legally mandated strategies, like Truth and Reconcilliation Commitions, or Reparations. Part 2 focused on Public Dialogues which see people willingly having conversations with each other to help communities heal. This third program in the series focuses on various OTHER forms of Community Building. Correspondent Suzanne Kryder looks into some effective programs in 3 diverse areas of the world that challenge everyone to bring their best to help improve the mood of a place and find common ground with each other to heal.
