Note from the Editor
August is a month of reflection and action --- in the North, it is a time to think back on the potential of the summer months, and begin to prepare for fall and winter ahead. Similarly, the three UN International days of recognition this month are a call to reflect on the past and take action for a better future. They are: International Day of the World's Indigenous People, International Youth Day, and International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition. While the atrocities of colonization and slavery are often painful to reflect on (especially since they continue in many forms in the present day), let us not forget the equally long history of those who resisted and fought against such cruelty and inhumanity, in the name of freedom and equality for all. While the struggle continues, their hope for a better and more peaceful world lives on. As always, comments and contributions are more than welcome. Please direct all correspondence to editor@upeace.monitor.org Submissions are also invited for our peer reviewed journal, the Peace & Conflict Review. For more information, please click here.
