"Peacebook" Hopes for Unity Through Social Media
Eight student teams from around the world will gather at the United Nations tomorrow for the inaugural SPIRIT conference, a one-day event that aims to let young adults “micro-contribute” to international peacemaking.
In partnership with Columbia Business School, SPIRIT (Students Participating In Resolving International Tensions) focuses on collaboration and knowledge-sharing, connecting people in war-torn countries with those with the resources to help.
The ultimate goal is to create the first open-source peacebuilding platform, a social network that would help open the peacebuilding processes to all citizens, irrespective of social standing and/or wealth.
