Sadly our world is marred by violence and conflict within and between nations, communities and families. Much of this violence has been sparked by injustice and poverty.
In our world the richest 10% of its people enjoy 85% of its wealth, leaving the poorest 50% owning barely 1% between them. http://www.wider.unu.edu/
Conflict is often about inequality.
Peace cannot be achieved without justice.
Simply Sharing 2012 will help you:
- Understand that conflict is often about inequality.
- Understand that peace is not just about an absence of violence, but living in a just society.
- Understand that effective development can address some of the causes of conflict and explore development as a way of reinforcing peace.
- Understand that in response to our faith, peace-building is an active process that we can and should engage in.
