Peace Education

What is
Peace Education?

Peace education is values-based learning that builds awareness, knowledge and skills for preventing and handling conflicts and instills a culture of peace.

A culture of peace “consists of values, attitudes and behaviours and reflect and inspire social interaction and sharing…and reject violence and endeavour to prevent conflicts by tackling their root causes to solve problems through dialogue and negotiation…”, according to the United Nations(resolution A/RES/52/13).
