Dear Friends,

Welcome Nigeria Network and Campaign for Peace Education

This network brings practitioners in peace education together.

What is Peace Education? Peace education provides tools and skills needed for solving the problem of human societies to make them a less violent, more peaceful and just society. Peace Education means different things to different people; it serves different purposes based on need, the time and the people. The contents should include creating a peaceable climate, enhance skills, and knowledge. The emphasis is on the need that peace education should be based on the realities of the specifics of the intended participants. The essence is that the context and geographical realities should be an important consideration; the intended audience is an essential component with respect to age, social status, and the environment as well as various interrelationships to achieve the transformation envisaged in the society.

In this respect, we are calling on all practitioners of peace education in Nigeria to join together in a network to share ideas on promoting the campaign on peace education. We are officially affiliated with the Global Campaign for Peace Education.

Initial Exploratory Goals:

• Build public awareness and political support for the introduction of peace education into all spheres of education, including non-formal education, in all schools throughout the world;
• Support and promote the development of effective teacher training in peace education
• Promote effective implementation of national legislation on peace education.
• Support grassroots and community-based peace education efforts
• Development of peace education curricula that responds specifically to the specific crises in different parts of Nigeria

As we map our members and decide on the next steps, we might have to categorize our activities into the following thematic areas:

• Teacher training,
• Schools based peace education
• Non-formal/community based,
• Youth peacebuilding,
• Policy/advocacy

These groups are not cast in stone and can be changed as membership grow. For further information please contact:
