Peace Education Programme
Objectives
The double objective of the Education Programme of Grains of Peace is:
de développer des compétences psychosociales, interculturelles et pacifo-critiques qui aident à prévenir, éviter et dépasser les violences
et d'aider à tisser des relations de paix harmonieuses.
Ces deux objectifs sont indissociables: c’est le désir de tisser des relations de paix durables qui permet de transcender la violence durablement.
Intercultural program
Cultures, religions and institutional texts each transmit universal human values, according to their respective vocation. We develop programmes, organise debates and conferences, hold workshops, respectively for children, teens and adults, create encounters and suggest relevant books. We hope to produce publications which illustrate these values in a spirit of openness.
Our programmes and meetings encourage young and less young people from different cultures to meet, to become interested in cross-cultural human values (cultural, religious and institutional) and to devlop activities which encourage them to appreciate each other.
Would you like to come to one of our meetings in Geneva or Lausanne or to receive information about one of our future peace circles or conferences? Please contact us.
