For more than 25 years, the small South Asian island of Sri Lanka was devastated by civil war. According to the United Nations., an estimated 80,000 to 100,000 people were killed, and millions more were traumatized. Since 2009, the nation has embarked on a challenging process of reconciliation. And in recent years, that process has included the Peace Education Program, embraced by the Bureau of Rehabilitation to help former fighters and civilians alike heal, and build a culture of peace. In 2018, Prem Rawat, founder of the Peace Education Program, was invited by government officials to meet with ex-combatants and rehabilitation officers.
