Peace is understood not only as the absence of traditional forms of direct violence, but also as a positive presence. Educating for and about all aspects of peace constitutes peace education.
Peace education aims to develop skills, attitudes, and knowledge with co-operative and participatory methods and an environment of tolerance, care and respect. The practice of peace education is an opportunity to promote the total welfare of students, advocate for their just and equitable treatment of youth, and promote individual and social responsibility for both educators and learners.
