Dimapur, May 5 (EMN): The students of Holy Family School Kohima were enlightened on ‘Peace and peace building’. Kohima district coordinator, Susan Kulnu together with two student volunteers Lulu Awomi and Ayekali Aye of Don Bosco College Kohima capacitated 24 students along with a teacher animator on May 5.
Adressing the students, Kulnu said peace is one of the most essential requirements of humanity and a necessary pre-requisite for progress, development and sustainability. She emphasised on the main objective of peace and peace building. Students were also motivated to understand the concept of peace to transform a culture of violence into a culture of peace.
Kulnu said peace is an experience of harmony between different social groups that is characterised by lack of violence or conflict behaviours, and the freedom from fear of violence. It also common understood as the absence of hostility and retribution; it suggests sincere attempts at reconciliation; existence of healthy or newly interpersonal or international relationships; prosperity in matters of social or economic welfare; establishment of equality; and working political order that serves the true interest of all.
Citing a quotation by Mother Teresa “Peace begins with a smile,” she urged the students to do one good deed every day, be it in a small or big way in their homes, school and locality.
