This book describes Rondine Cittadella della Pace and its unique residential peacebuilding program that works with young activists from some of the world’s most dangerous conflict zones. Set in its own Tuscan village, Rondine invites students to its two-year long residential program that provides them with a master’s degree, trauma healing, and training in peacebuilding. While at Rondine, students work in pairs representing “both sides” of a conflict and prepare projects that they will put into place when they return home. Half of the book is devoted to an in-depth description of the Rondine method by its founder, Franco Vaccari, while the remainder consists of essays providing the religious, psychological, and political context for this innovative psycho-social method of conflict resolution.
Franco Vaccari is the founder and president of Rondine, Cittadella Della Pace, and is a practicing psychotherapist.
Miguel H. Díaz is the John Courtney Murray, S.J., University Chair in Public Service at Loyola University Chicago and former U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See.
Charles Hauss is veteran activist, author of eighteen books in comparative politics and peacebuilding, and is Senior Fellow for Innovation at the Alliance for Peacebuilding.
