What motivated you to become involved in peace and conflict resolution?

"You don't make peace by talking to your friends; you have to make peace with your enemies'." Nelson Mandela. Look at the war effected people:

After reading Mandela's quote I thought a lot about my strength and my role and at last it’s gave me the impression to become a peace worker. The situation is getting worst everywhere in the world and no one is secure. No one is thinking why?????

I did thought about it and started practical work and I found it really encouraging. We are the world and we can change the world in a positive way. Here most of the people are professionals and we have the capabilities to do astonishing work.
I am young motivated professional and want to work for my country and for people anywhere in the world.

I worked in Pakistan and Afghanistan in the humanitarian sector I got the impression that the people at the grass roots level are not involve in the planning and of course in implementation. Our people are our strength and we have to encourage them in this sector through participatory approaches.

We have to say “war is not the answer”
