GENERAL SANTOS CITY — Mindanao State University in General Santos City is now equipped to become the “National Peace University,”school officials said.
Aguja, MSU faculty regent and also the project leader of the Commission on Higher Education-Institutional Development and Innovation Grant , on Wednesday said the big challenge confronting educators has always been how to present the narratives of Mindanao from that of biases, prejudices and conflict, to that of peace and development in our area.
He said the event was designed to share inspiring experiences on significant matters that highly affect peace education from the different communities, giving everyone a clearer narrative about their Mindanao, he said. Aragasi said the peace educators’ learnings from the conference will be their commitment to becoming ambassadors of peace and goodwill.
“While at some point, we tell everyone to be patient because it is so difficult to untangle historical events, there is also a sense of urgency. We should not be complacent when we talk about peace,” De Vera III said, adding there is a need to make peace a lifestyle.“Peace advocates must view peace education from a historical perspective because in peace education and in the discussion of peace, historical distortions are all over the place.
