Can stories mend what violence has broken? This session explores how local peace literature — rooted in everyday struggles and hopes — can serve as a powerful tool for healing, resistance, and transformation. From challenging dominant ideologies to offering alternative ways of seeing the world, such literature helps individuals and communities understand the roots of personal, social, and structural violence. Join us to reflect on how storytelling, peace journalism, and grassroots literary traditions can reimagine conflict and plant the seeds of a more peaceful future.
