Traditional approaches to peacemaking involve such conflict resolution methods as bargaining, negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and adjudication. Article 33 of the United Nations Charter enumerates pacific settlement of disputes to include negotiation, enquiry, mediation, conciliation arbitration, judicial settlement, resort to regional agencies or arrangements, or other peaceful means of their own choice. The newer approaches to peacemaking include psycho-social approaches, problem-solving workshops, conflict transformation, & training. The discussion on conflict necessarily starts with the causes of conflict, emergence and escalation of conflict, conflict resolution, and conflict transformation. The causes of conflict can be external or internal. There are both local & international conflicts. We need to have a deeper understanding of the social, economic, political, & military factors that cause political violence & armed conflict. Rey, tell me, what is conflict management? What does conflict management mean, Rey?

Bringing Down The Sun - Paranoid Earthling (For World Peace Day 2008)

Music is a bridge between people that can transcend differences and prejudice and unite people, especially in countries that are torn apart by war and experiencing conflict transformation. It is a medium that especially appeals to young people. In the case of Sri Lanka, it reaches out to a generation that has been born into and grown up with the war and conflict. Young Asia Television (YATV), in collaboration with the Global Partnership for the Prevention for Armed Conflict (GPPAC), has produced a music video to commemorate International Peace Day on the 21st of September 2008. Until we inhabit a different world the International Day of Peace must be embraced as an opportunity to reflect on what's happening around us, how far we have come and how much further we have to go. Bringing Down the Sun an original song written and preformed by the rock band Paranoid Earthling, highlights the impact of conflict on youth in Sri Lanka. Paranoid Earthling is made up by Mirshad, Dhanushka, Asela and Shanka, four young musicians from Kandy, with 7 years of experience and a loyal fan base among urban Sri Lankan youth. Recognizing that few opportunities exist in Sri Lanka for musicians to explore their talent and create new songs, YATV and GCPAC embarked on this initiative to promote peace, through the power of youth and music. The music video especially targets urban youth in Sri Lanka and among the Sri Lankan diaspora in other countries. YATV is committed to supporting peace and <b>...</b>
