From activists, scholars and architects to policymakers and graphic, game and landscape designers, \u003ci\u003eDesigning Peace\u003c\/i\u003e flips the conversation: peace is not simply a passive state signifying the absence of war, it is a dynamic concept that requires effort, expertise and multidimensional solutions to address its complexity.\u003cbr\u003eDesigners engage with individuals, communities and organizations to create a more sustainable peace--from creative confrontations that challenge existing structures to designs that demand embracing justice and truth in a search for reconciliation. This publication aims to expand the discourse on what is possible if society were to design for peace. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors include\u003c\/b\u003e: Michael Adlerstein, Pablo Ares and Julia Risler, Merve Bedir, Everisto Benyera, Nadine Bloch and Andrew Boyd, Lee Davis, Toni L.
