This site explores some of the issues that I am passionate about: qualitative research and world peace. Qualitative research, which embodies story-telling and other forms of what is considered to be creative expression, i.e. poetry, photos, pictures, etc, has led to the Stories for Peace project that utilizes their power. Publications and presentations are a result of qualitative research. The blog is a place to reflect on the issues outlined above, as well as life in general.
