The current issue of In Factis Pax is comprised of three articles that were originally presented at the International Institute on Peace Education (IIPE) July 12-18, 2010 in Colombia. The theme of the institute was “Learning to Read the World from Multiple Perspectives: Peace Education toward Diversity & Inclusion.” Anita Yudkin-Suliveres, Professor and UNESCO Chair for Peace Education at the University of Puerto Rico served as guest co-editor. The institute was bilingual, and in the spirit of bilingualism one of the articles from the institute is published in Spanish. The articles include the following:
