People to Thank

We began with intense research and relationship building. Since 1993, many have contributed generously with their knowledge advice, financial support, and encouragement. This has given the "public peace process" intelligence, direction, form, and spirit. Without all of that cross-cultural cooperation , nothing new could have happened. To all of you, and those we may have inadvertently overlooked, thank you so much.
