This is why we also hope the books can help generate interaction betweenyouth networks in different countries and regions, because every concept, everyexercise, every definition has to be related to the concrete everyday realities peoplelive in and made effective in different environments. Our suggestion is that you thereaders and users improve and enrich the books and share that with others.The future of Africa is not in the hands of the corrupt elites, the warlords, thedictators or the International Community and its “experts”; it is in the hands of theyouth of Africa.We believe that instead of being abused as child soldiers, rape victims andangry people with neither hope nor future, African youth can become a weapon ofmass construction.Christiane KayserFlaubert DjatengCPS mobile teamBerlin/Bafoussam, December 201210 E d i t o r s ’ f o r e w o r d
ForewordDear user(s), this resource book is a deliberate attempt by the Youth Department ofthe Presbyterian Church in Cameroon to equip you with an additional tool for Peacebuilding.Aware of the fact that there are many manuals on peace building, we hope thatthis resource book in your hands will facilitate your unequalled efforts in making ourcommunities more harmonious and livable through your peace building program.We live in a world that is broken, bruised and traumatized by the overwhelmingforce of conflict. Poverty, a by-product of conflict and war has deprived manypeople of their self-esteem.In the midst of such brokenness, Jesus Christ says…. “Blessed are those whowork for peace…. God will call them his children” (Matthew 5:9). We are by this exhortationcalled upon to sue for peace in our families and society.Working for peace cannot be an isolated effort. This resource book is thus anattempt to make us partners in peace work. Henry Ford, an America automobiledesigner and manufacturer once saidComing together is a beginningKeeping together is progressWorking together is successThis resource book, made possible through the hard work of our peace staff Ms.Ka tharina Schilling will provide you with the principles of our common effort tobuild peace in our society. We pray that these efforts be crowned with the desiredsuccess.Reverend Francis Ituka MekumbaNational Youth Secretary, PCCF o r e w o r d b y F r a n c i s I t u k a M e k u m b a 11
