This blog is the result of an academic exercise through which some documents about Peace Linguistics have been interpreted and some ideas about how to apply such a kind of peace in academic contexts have been made concrete.

​

Peace Linguistics (PL) in the educational field is an interdisciplinary approach aimed at exploring tools to create conditions so that teachers, students and administrative staff become sensitized to the fact that languages are mechanisms to enhance both peaceful communication and communication about peace. This field also involves the identification of verbal conflicts as a way to avoid naturalizing linguistic violence.

​

This young field is nurtured from thoughts, feelings and actions of people who decide to listen to others calmly and carefully, to express themselves peacefully, to talk about peace but also to explore ways through which words can cause harm and destruction. This field is comprised of more conscious and ready-to-act human beings.
