Presentation:Brandeis Graduate Program on Coexistence and Conflict proposed BALKANS PEACE PARK - Albania, Kosovo and Montenegro In a world beset by conflicts and division, peace is one of the cornerstones of the future. Peace parks are a building block in this process, not only in our region, but potentially in the entire world." Dr. Nelson Mandela Source: Peace Parks Foundation "I know of no political movement, no philosophy, no ideology, which does not agree with the peace parks concept as we see it going into fruition today. It is a concept that can be embraced by all.
