Eastern Mennonite University’s long standing and highly regarded Summer Peacebuilding Institute has announced programming for the summer 2017. For professionals working in the field, it is an ideal opportunity to broaden peacebuilding perspectives, particularly for U.S. educators. The program tends to draw a large number of internationals, which provides the opportunity to develop global understanding of conflict and build networks. The institute is sponsored by the Center for Justice & Peacebuilding.

I am conflict resolution educator, peacebuilding trainer and career coach. My professional experience has spanned the legal, think tank, international, quasi-government, and higher and secondary education sectors. I have taught at all higher education levels: community college, 4-year undergraduate (private, public, religious), graduate, and international. In 2003-2004 I was a U.S. Fulbright Scholar teaching at the University of Tartu in Estonia. From 2005 -2012 I was a senior program officer and senior manager at the U.S. Institute of Peace in Washington where I managed programs for colleges and universities and developed training for faculty and students. I work with all groups and educational institutions to support peacebuilding awareness.
