Denn Gewalt löst keine Konflikte, sondern erschwert gerade deren Lösung. Das ist im Kleinen nicht anders wie im Großen. Und weil Konflikte zum Leben dazu gehören, beschäftigen wir uns als Arbeitsstelle innerhalb der Evangelischen Landeskirche Baden mit Fragen der Konfliktlösung und der Überwindung von Krieg und Gewalt. Wir beraten Kriegsdienstverweigerer auf dem Weg zur Anerkennung, vermitteln Freiwillige in verschiedene Sozialprojekte im europäischen Ausland, unterstützen den Aufbau eines Zivilen Friedensdienstes als Friedensfachdienst und bieten Kirchengemeinden innerhalb unserer Landeskirche in diesem Bereich unsere Unterstützung an. |

In der Ökumenischen Dekade zur Überwindung von Gewalt geht es nicht nur um Aktivitäten nach außen, sondern auch um seelsorgerliche Aufarbeitung erlittener Gewalt.

Im Einladungsprospekt heißt es: "In unserem Alltag haben wir meist weder die Zeit noch die Orte, unsere Gefühle zuzulassen und so die Chance zu bekommen, Belastendes, Traumatisches, Verdrängtes (meist als Folge erlittener Gewalt) zu bearbeiten, damit wir danach weniger "Altlasten" durchs Leben schleppen. Die Innehalten- und Unterwegs sein-Kurse sollen solche Orte sein". |
