Invitation to participate on the Editorial Board for The Change Agent issue
on Building Peace at Home, in the Community and in the World

Conflict is a part of life whether we like it or not. How we deal with it
makes a difference between peace and war, safety and violence, growth and
stagnation. In this issue we are looking to publish writings, lessons,
activities and reflections addressing the theme of building peace at home,
in the community and in the world.  We want to hear from people who have
experienced conflict or even war in their lives and the lessons they have
learned through those experiences. We want to highlight personal and
community efforts though which people have learned to deal with conflict
constructively. We'd also like to promote ideas for building peace in the
world. Please see attached call for articles.

Help Us Shape and Select Material for This Issue We are looking for
Editorial Board members to work with us on this issue by
*	helping to conceptualize the theme and sub-themes and sharing
insights and ideas
*	helping to identify resources, reprints, and to solicit articles
from other authors
*	attending two meetings (1 2-hr meeting and one 3-hour meeting) held
at World Education in Boston in early March and late May (a limited number
of participants can join us by phone instead of in person)
*	securing or writing at least one article
*	reviewing submitted materials and making recommendations for what to
print

We can offer a $50 stipend per meeting and car mileage travel reimbursement
