The Story Behind The Dictionary
In a world where division and unkindness too often overshadow empathy, one mother and educator chose a different path, a path of language, love, and light. From her earliest years, Dr. Nakita Bruno-Green was surrounded by examples of compassion, humility, and community spirit. Her parents modeled integrity and kindness through their service in education and public life, nurturing in her a deep belief that love and understanding could transform the human experience. Those early lessons shaped a lifelong commitment to peace not as an abstract idea, but as a daily practice rooted in how we speak, listen, and relate to one another. As her journey unfolded, Dr. Bruno-Green’s global perspective deepened. During her studies at Maharishi International University, she learned alongside peers from every corner of the world; India, Ethiopia, the United States, Canada, Iran, and Nepal. These friendships revealed that peace is possible when we see ourselves reflected in one another and celebrate our shared humanity. Her doctoral research with the UNEP Young Champions of the Earth reinforced this truth: lasting change begins when hearts and minds unite through empathy and understanding. Over years of teaching students across South Africa, China, and the United States, she witnessed the universal brilliance of the human spirit its yearning to connect, to create, and to care. Parallel to her professional calling came her most personal role that of a mother. Her daughter became both her inspiration and her reminder that peace begins at home, in the words and emotions children learn from those who guide them. Drawing together her experiences as a scholar, educator, and parent, Dr. Bruno-Green founded The World Peace Dictionary LLC and The World Peace Language Non-Profit Oranization a movement devoted to teaching children the language of peace. Through The Children’s First Dictionary of World Peace and its companion materials, she created a values-based resource that helps families and educators nurture empathy, confidence, authenticity, and love. Today, the World Peace Dictionary stands as both a book and a bridge connecting homes, classrooms, and cultures. It empowers parents and teachers with tools to raise children who will one day lead with wisdom and compassion. Each page, each word, each story is a seed planted for humanity’s future a future where children grow fluent in kindness, grounded in understanding, and inspired to build a more harmonious world.
