PeaceMaker Series: TEEN PEACE TRAIN is a project designed to motivate young people to create peace in their lives by teaching them the tools of self expression, respectful communication and balanced living.
BLACKFEET ACADEMY - Consider Source hosted a group of seniors from the Blackfeet Academy, an alternative high school located on the Blackfeet Reservation. The teens came for a weekend of activities that interwove science, culture, humanities and community building. The teens learned conflict resolution and communication skills from Deidre Combs, author of The Way of Conflict, attended the Rocky Mountain Bioneers conference, and met with "Uncle", an Eskimo Elder who has appeared before the United Nations to discuss environmental issues and indigenous peoples. The students also visited Montana State University where they met with staff from the Space Grant Consortium, toured the Space Engineering Lab, learned about the Department of Engineering project, "Designing our Communities" and lunched with students at the American Indian student center. The students also visited the Blackfeet artifacts exhibit at the Museum of the Rockies. 2005
