“Teenagers promote dialogue on peace and conflict in KidSpirit magazine” kidspiritonline.com March 8, 2011

In response to the tumultuous political struggles unfolding around the globe, KidSpirit Online, the award-winning online magazine and forum for teenagers, launched its spring issue [March 7] on the topic of Conflict and Peacemakers. Chosen and edited by an all-youth Editorial Board, this issue promotes constructive dialogue on the theme in a rich array of contexts.

Feature articles that will be published during the quarterly issue range from an insider exploration of cyberbullying to pieces with a specific international focus. One teen writer interviews participants of two programs designed to powerfully connect youth on opposing sides of entrenched global conflicts. Another article delves into a young writer’s hopes for peace in her country.
