Will a Peace Table Save the World?
A Peace Table: A Solution to Society’s Problems
Will a Peace Table Save the World?
The idea of a “peace table” is old, but it’s become even more relevant in the post-9/11 world. A peace table can be an excellent way to imagine how different approaches to solving problems might impact the people we live with. It’s also a perfect tool for brainstorming solutions that don’t involve violence or war.
A peace table is where people can come together and have meaningful conversations about issues without worrying about being banned from the next party or community function because someone at the previous one disagreed too much.
It’s a place where people can talk about politics, religion, gender equality, social injustice and more without worrying if they will be forced out of their respective groups due to differences of opinion.
What is a Peace Table?
A peace table is a tool that can help us to find common ground and discuss issues that may seem too big to tackle head-on. It’s also a great way to bring people together and create relationships based on mutual respect while still being able to have frank, discussion-based conversations.
