Seeds of Peace Leader Eva Armour Discusses U.S. Polarization as a Conflict Zone
Eva Armour, executive director of Seeds of Peace, has highlighted the increasing polarization in the U.S., likening it to a conflict zone. In an interview, Armour discussed how the nonprofit's conflict resolution strategies, traditionally used in international hotspots, are now relevant domestically. Seeds of Peace, founded in 1993, focuses on bringing together young people from opposing sides of conflicts to foster dialogue and understanding. Armour noted that the U.S. is experiencing similar patterns of division, with entrenched views and a breakdown in communication. The organization aims to address these issues by encouraging curiosity and dialogue among participants.
