Poster 3: Rebuilding relationships: Saying sorry and forgiving after hurtful conflict

Unhealed hurts from the past often prevent good relationships in the present because the old hurts keep re-emerging and causing anger and pain. Then, people may be too upset to use effective conflict resolution skills for solving current problems.

The aim of the poster is to help people move beyond old hurts, restore healthy relationships, and put their conflict resolution skills into practice. The poster picks up the themes of reconciliation that are so salient throughout the world at present. The poster is beautifully illustrated in full colour using Australian bush animals to carry the message.

'Peace is Possible' badges and stickers

By inviting people to believe that 'peace is possible' we help each other move out of helplessness and hopelessness and into action. Everything we do to encourage others to believe non-violent solutions are possible and to actively express their concerns helps to bring about changes that will ripple through all levels of society.
