Seeds of Peace...
The tagline is good copy, that's for sure. But I wonder if such good work and process must forever remain in the realm of charitable fundraising to support the curriculum? I wonder. Especially, as it's own website says...
Seeds of Peace: An International Model
Due to its proven impact and success in the Middle East, Seeds of Peace has earned international recognition as an effective model for resolving conflict worldwide.

So the tagline is more about -- really I don't know -- since, if it is educating youth with life skills imperative to the development of compassion, respect, and skills -- shouldn't that be EXACTLY what an empowered citizenry and government that recognizes the inherent value and equality of every human being be determined to do?
Until we realize this... and perhaps until the founders of this organization do also... keep up the good work and let's figure out how we reconcile the promise of the United States with the delivery of that promise.
