Abstract

It is a known fact that there cannot be meaningful development in the face of conflict. For this reason, local, national and international bodies have been set up to see to conflict resolution and to make room for national development. methods have been proposed and theories have been propounded to deal with the teething problem of conflict in order to create an atmosphere of national development. This paper stresses the necessity of peace and conflict resolution for national development. It affirms the different methods proposed by contributors to the issue of peace and conflict resolution, like those by Shedrack Gaya Best (2006) but insists that NUC proposal for the inclusion of peace and conflict studies be introduced into the school curricula from the primary to tertiary level.
