Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Abstract: Peace occupies an integral part in every harmonious social life and relations, which is characterised by respect, justice and goodwill. One cannot deny the fact that the attainment of peace in the society is a pre-condition to the attainment of well being and justice of every individual. Linked to peace, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), an agent of the United Nations, is primarily responsible for the promotion of peace education in the world. The establishment of positive peace in conflict-ridden regions like North East India will be a challenging task. Nevertheless, the gravity of difficulties in resolving the conflicting issues or the complexity of the contesting demands does not mean the impossibility of the attainment of positive peace in conflict-ridden North East India. This paper attempts to understand the meaning of peace education. It claims that the most effective means for the establishment of lasting positive peace in the Northeastern region is the establishment and promotion of peace education in the region. Keywords: Conflict, Indian Government, Insurgency, North East India, Peace, Peace Education
