In recognition of Canada's 150 years of Confederation, Canadians of all ages and backgrounds heeded our call to share their story of peace for this collection. These are their stories... Stories of individuals finding and creating peace within themselves, with friends, with their Creator, with Canada, and with others - even where peace may be difficult to imagine. Stories that are expressed in prose, in poetry and song. Stories that are joyful and funny; stories that are sad, heart wrenching or difficult to accept; stories that are illuminating and inspiring. Some stories take place in the school yard, others in homes and communities, still others on the international scene documenting Canada's role in development and diplomacy. We are honoured to bring you this collection and hope they inspire you in your journeys of peace.

In 1999, in the midst of the conflict that caused great suffering, when many people were trapped and 'forced' to be directly or indirectly involved in the raging violence, not a few Moluccans in their own different ways stood their distance and maintained a critical attitude to the conflict. At the same time, they started to fight for peace. The Basudara's Stories of Peace in Maluku is filled with their stories. In addition to being a sign of respect for their actions, this documentation aims to record each of these experiences and personal testimonies, so they do not just evaporate into thin air. Their testimonies also contain very valuable lessons not just for the people of Maluku, but for the whole of humankind, in the present and in the future. It is time that good stories, containing voices for peace (not violent conflict), can be heard more from Maluku. If we really want to see peace, why don't we start to read and write more often about it or talk about it? This book is important reading for the people of Maluku, or other Indonesians who have experienced violent conflict, but also for others who want to avoid the same sort of violent conflict. Policy makers, religious leaders and civilians need to read The Basudara's Stories of Peace in Maluku - they will draw many lessons from these stories.

Excerpt from Stories of Peace and War I cannot tell you precisely how our party was sorted, but one was a lawyer with eyeglasses and settled habits, loving nature, though detesting canoes; the other was nominally a merchant, but in reality an atavic Norseman of the wolf and raven kind; while I am not new. Together we started. Presently the Abwees sat about the board of a lumbermen's hotel, filled with house-flies and slatternly waiter-girls, who talked familiarly while they served greasy food. The Abwees were yet sore in their minds at the thoughts of the smelly beds upstairs, and discouragement sat deeply on their souls.

This volume represents a collection of stories and essays that highlight the importance of creating and sustaining peace. Put together, the contributions here propose that peace can be created and sustained through people’s actions. Likewise, some actions could lead to violence. If we can vanquish the vices of envy, distrust, greed, and their like, and if we support social and economic justice and come together in charity, we can intentionally bring peace to our lives, homes, institutions, and communities. If we are socially responsible, we shall indeed work together for social justice, and, thus, create and sustain peace. The loud and deferring voices of conflicts, wars, and terrorism must continue to be drowned out by strong voices of peace. As part of the effort to make peace heard in order to match the voices and stories of war and terrorism, this book collects these stories of peace to inspire the reader to work for peace and join the community of people sharing peace stories.

The Book Story-Formed Pathways to Peace calls readers to action around a single vision—making peace a reality. It draws on the unexpected power of stories to transform the world. The stories retold here have resonated through the ages not only with those religious but also with thinkers, artists, musicians, and others who have seen in them universal patterns of behavior. Now retold with commentary as seen through the lens of conflict and peacemaking, they illuminate pathways to peace as relevant today as when first told. Each chapter is fronted with imagined headlines of the ancient story with actual parallel headlines from the present, thus highlighting this connection of past and present. It is then in going back that pathways toward peace are illuminated for the present and future. The wisdom tradition of sacred texts is hereby extended.

This is the inspiring story of Wangari Maathai, women's rights activist and one of the first environmental warriors. Overcoming great obstacles, Wangari began the Green Belt Movement in Kenya in the 1960s, which focused on planting trees, environmental conservation and women's rights. She inspired thousands across Africa to plant 30 million trees in 30 years, saving many from hunger and poverty. Her remarkable story of courage and determination shows how just one person can change the world. The story shows children how desertification works: how land is eroded and degraded when trees aren't there to hold the soil in place so it's not taken away by winds and heavy rain. It explains how all living things are dependent on each other and if trees are taken away, then you not only lessen the fertility of the soil, but you lose the animals that live there and then the animals that rely on those animals for food and so on. As well as explaining important green issues, the book also talks about Wangari's fight for human rights and shows how important it is to stand up for what you believe. The gripping narrative non-fiction text by Gwendolyn Hooks, winner of the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work for Children, hooks readers from the start. Vibrant illustrations from print-maker Margaux Carpentier, one of the featured artists in Taschen's The Illustrator: 100 Best from around the World, vividly evoke Wangari's amazing life story.The consultant, Dr Jane Irungu, grew up in Kenya, but is now a Professor at the University of Oklahoma. She was inspired by Wangari when she was growing up and went on to get a PhD just as Wangari did. 'Carpentier's saturated geometric illustrations emphasize the bold impact of Maathai's actions', Publishers Weekly, May 2021
