The Comment by Solomon M. Muin on February 25, 2009 inspires me more of the requirement of a peace biulder an dit will be unfaire if i dont quote him becouse it is also applicabale here in kenya 'Coming out from a community (Kenya) that suffers one of Africa's most brutal Ethnic war, networking and working with others to ensure that the next generation does not suffer the scourge of war is my outmost priority. This makes it compelling to be a part of this initiative to make a difference'. Thank you.

Coming out from a community (Liberia) that suffers one of Africa's most brutal civil war, networking and working with others to ensure that the next generation does not suffer the scourge of war is my outmost priority. This makes it compelling to be a part of this initiative to make a difference. Thank you.
