OVERVIEW
Education “about” peace captures much of the substance of the
learning. It invites reflection and analysis on the conditions of
sustainable peace and how to achieve them. It also involves understanding
and critically examining violence in all its multiple forms and
manifestations.
Education “for” peace orients peace education towards preparing and
cultivating learners with knowledge, skills, and capacities to pursue
peace and to nonviolently respond to conflict. It is also concerned with
nurturing inner moral and ethical resources that are essential to external
peace action.

OVERVIEW
Peace education takes place in many contexts and settings, both
inside and outside of schools. Considered most broadly, education can
be understood as the intentional and organized process of learning.
Integrating peace education into schools is a strategic goal of the
Global Campaign for Peace Education, as formal education plays a
fundamental role in producing and reproducing knowledge and values in
societies and cultures. In other words, peace education seeks to nurture
dispositions and attitudes that are necessary for engaging in
transformative action for peaceful change. Peace education is
particularly futures oriented, preparing students to envision and build more
preferred realities.

Q: Would you rather be kind or right?
"In this lifetime, I would rather be kind
than right. Because anyone in the world
can be right, but not everybody can be
kind. And I believe that if there's one
thing in the world that's so beautiful, it's
that even though the world can be so
harsh to you, even if the world can grip
you and break you into pieces, you can
still be kind and I think that's power."

VIOLENCE
-a complex concept. Violence is often understood as the use or threat
of force that can result in injury, harm, deprivation or even death. It
may be physical, verbal, or psychological. The World Health
Organization (WHO) defines violence as "intentional use of physical
force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another
person, or against a group or community, that either results in or has a
high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm,
maldevelopment or deprivation".

2. Structural Violence
-refers to a form of harm or violence that is
embedded in the social, economic, and political
structures of a society. Unlike direct violence, which
involves immediate, physical harm caused by a
specific individual or group, structural violence is
often more subtle and pervasive. It results from
systemic inequalities, discriminatory policies, and
unequal distribution of resources that create
conditions for harm and disadvantage certain
groups of people.

CULTURE OF PEACE
Following a proposal made by UNESCO, the United Nations General
Assembly in 1998 (resolution A/52/13) defined the Culture of Peace as
consisting of values, attitudes and behaviors that reject violence and
endeavor to prevent conflicts by addressing their root causes with a
view to solving problems through dialogue and negotiation among
individuals, groups, and nations.
The 1999 United Nations Declaration and Programme of Action on
a Culture of Peace (resolution A/53/243) called for everyone –
governments, civil society, the media, parents, teachers, politicians,
scientists, artists, NGOs, and the entire United Nations system – to
assume responsibility in this respect.

INTEGRATION OF PEACE EDUCATION
Peace education or an education that promotes a culture of peace, is
essentially transformative. It cultivates the knowledge base, skills,
attitudes, and values that seek to transform people’s behaviors that, in
the first place, have either created or exacerbated violent conflicts. It
seeks this transformation by building awareness and understanding,
developing concern, and finally, challenging personal and social action that
will enable people to create conditions and systems that actualize
nonviolence, justice, environmental care, and other peace values.

INTEGRATION OF PEACE EDUCATION
This means that the learning process utilized in peace education is holistic
and it tries to address the cognitive, affective, and active dimensions of
the learner. A usual procedure includes the introduction of relevant new
knowledge or reinforced knowledge, posing valuing questions and using
discussion and other participatory methods to cultivate concern and eliciting /
challenging / encouraging appropriate personal and social action.
The action towards transformation may include action against prejudice
and the war system, or action for social and economic justice. Paying
attention to all these levels the cognitive, affective, and active- increases the
possibility that the peace perspective or value that is being cultivated would be
internalized.

WHY TEACH PEACE EDUCATION?
We must educate people about peace because it will transform many
problems that relate to peace into non-violent, humane, and ecological
alternatives and solutions. Educating people for peace will give us in the
long run the practical benefits that we seek.
a. Peace education challenges the long-held belief that wars cannot be
avoided. Often this belief is based on an underlying view that violence is
inherent in human nature.

WHY TEACH PEACE EDUCATION?
b. Peace education can transform people’s mindsets regarding the
inevitably of war and can in fact enable people to see that alternatives exist
and that there are ways by which violent conflict can be prevented.
c. Educating for peace is an ethical imperative considering the negation of
life and well-being caused by all forms of violence.
d. The ethical systems of the major world faith traditions, humanitarian ethics
and even primal and indigenous spirituality have articulated principles that
inspire the striving for peace.
