Peace Education in Pracitice

Peace education, understood as the education towards peace, tries to question the status quo
of uncivil relations, educates on ways and methods of peaceful transformation of conflicts and
opens a space to reflect upon one’s own violent / peaceful attitudes, values and actions. In this
training we will introduce participants to the concept of the “logic of peace” which can serve as
an analytical tool as well as practical guidance. It allows participants to change their perspective
and to see a variety of opportunities for action which can initiate a paradigm shift from the logic
of security to the logic of peace. Furthermore participants are introduced to and will practice a selection
of methods and formats of peace education. The training also involves strategising for the
implementation of peace education on different levels of your respective context—towards the
institutionalisation. We will share our experience in the field of peace education but also include
and build on the cases and questions participants will introduce.
