Pushing the Perimeter The Clearing

In our third episode, One Man's Story of War and Peace, we speak with Professor Al Fuertes about his experience growing up in a war zone in the Philippines, and how that led him to become a practitioner in the field of conflict transformation. We also discover how some of our conventional notions of the roles in conflict, specifically the role of victim and perpetrator, may not be be so clear cut.
