II. Session Outline
Session Title:
Peace Concepts ( Positive and Negative Peace)
Session
At the end of the session, learners will be able to:
Objectives:
a. Understand the concepts of positive and negative peace.
b. Identify real-life examples of both positive and negative peace.
c. Develop strategies for promoting positive peace and mitigating
negative peace in their own lives and community.
Key Concepts:  Peace is a state of harmony, tranquility, and freedom from
conflict or violence. It goes beyond the absence of war or
physical violence and encompasses a broader concept of well-
being, justice, and cooperation among individuals,
communities, and nations.
 Positive Peace: This is a more lasting peace that is built on
sustainable investments in economic development and
institutions as well as societal attitudes that foster peace. It
can be used to gauge the resilience of a society, or its ability to
absorb shocks without falling or relapsing into conflict.
 Negative Peace: This is understood as the absence of violence
or fear of violence. It's an intuitive definition that many agree
with, and one which enables us to measure peace more easily.
 Conflict Resolution: This is the informal or formal process that
two or more parties use to find a peaceful solution to their
dispute. It can be done through negotiation, mediation,
arbitration, or litigation.
 Empathy: This is the ability to share someone else's feelings or
experiences by imagining what it would be like to be in that
person's situation. It is a form of perspective-taking that
involves emotional intelligence and sensitivity.
 Community Building: This is often encompassed under the
fields of community organizing, community organization,
community work, and community development. A wide variety
of practices can be utilized for community building, ranging
from simple events like potlucks and small book clubs, to
larger-scale efforts such as mass festivals and building
projects.
