The “PEACE” project is designed to contribute substantial training material around the development and use of “peer education” models in schools – an approach where the project partners have considerable experience. This general model can prove useful in areas such as conflict resolution, anti-racist work, general initiatives aimed at raising achievement and is particularly suitable for involving disadvantaged and ethnic minorities pupils.
The project concentrates on “peer education” in connection with conflict resolution, with a clear emphasis on raising achievements for pupils in general and for disadvantaged pupils in particular.
The project has produced different training modules and one handbook which gives methodological analyses of the training process, which can be used by teachers or by other professionals involved in activities of education and conflict resolution.
