The "The Little Book of Strategic Peacebuilding – A Vision and Framework for Peace with Justice," written by Lisa Schirch, was promoted last weekend in Banja Luka in the cafe Cafe&Chillout within the National and University Library RS.  The event was organized by the Peace Academy Foundation (PAF) from Sarajevo and the Center for Informative Decontamination of Youth from Banja Luka. 

Amer Tikveša, Executive Director of PAF, Randall Puljek-Shank, a member of the PAF Board of Directors, and Aleksander Trifunović, Head Editor of Buka, talked about the publication about about the idea of peace, and agreed that the subject is very hard to define in the context of strategic peacebuilding.
