Hi JoLynn, I sent your message to some peace studies people, and got this back from a friend - From: <barbarawien [at] verizon.net> Date: Mon, Feb 1, 2010 at 10:44 AM Subject: peaceful board games to teach consensus/cooperation Oh my gosh! There are thousands of cooperative games. How can I share them all? Where should I begin!? The best adult games come out of Latin America, The Freire Institutes, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, London, Germany, the Quakers, the VIPP method (UNICEF's Visualization in Participatory Planning), the Movement for a New Society and New Society Publishers, the human relations field, the Participative Design for Participative Democracy, participatory action adult education methods and so much more. There is an professional international society devoted to cooperative, democratic games and training methods. I think it is based in Vermont. What about EVERYBODY WINS!: 150 Non-Competitive Games for Children! by Cynthia MacGregor and its many successor books Cooperative Games and Sports:Joyful Activiites for Everyone and 393 Non-competitve games for Young Children by Sobel. Camping Magazine and The Everybody Wins movement has chapters in almost every state in the U.S. . What about The International Association for the Study of Cooperation in Education, The University of Queensland, Brisbane, AUSTRALIA. They totally rock. Check out all their games. Sivasailam Thiagarajan has written the most extensive collection. GAMES BY THIAGI. He was in Bloomington Indiana. He seems to be a bit commercial these days. Hey whatever it takes, right? Barbara J.
