The idea for the project isn\u2019t new. We first proposed it at our symposium in Rwanda in 2007 and further developed the idea at the Facilitators\u2019 training workshop in Kenya in 2010.<\/p>\n Our plan is to create an on-line resource for InterChange members to share peacebuilding models, tools and ideas they have found useful. The intention is not to create an exhaustive list of resources, but rather to build our network of peacebuilders by sharing things we have personally found useful.<\/p>\n We intend to offer the toolkit in a members-only section of the InterChange website. The toolkit will likely be an online resource with a searchable function so you can easily find what you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n The importance of the project<\/strong><\/p>\n We see the Toolkit for Peacebuilders as being key to develop the Vision and Mission of InterChange, which are:<\/p>\n Our Vision:<\/span><\/p>\n Community-based peacebuilders around the world sharing knowledge and supporting one another to nurture and develop dynamic, durable peace<\/p>\n Our Mission:<\/span><\/p>\n To foster and make visible community-based peacebuilding around the world<\/p>\n The Toolkit is also an integral part of the strategic planning process InterChange has initiated and that you\u2019ve just heard a bit about.<\/p>\n How to participate in the Toolkit project<\/strong><\/p>\n Fill in and send back the Toolkit Form<\/a> with your description of resources you have found useful and think that others would as well. They may be things you and\/or your group have developed or they may be resources from elsewhere, but the key issue is that you have personally used the resources and found them useful<\/span>. You\u2019ll be listed as the contact for the resource, and we see the project as being very helpful in building the InterChange network.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/interchange4peace.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/490-300x225.jpg\" "\\"InterChange")
