 peace
education online community inviting your participation!
The Peace
Education Center, IIPE, and Global Campaign for Peace Education invite
you to participate in a new global online initiative “the Peace
Education Online Communities.” The Peace Education Online
Community is an interactive website that enables members of the global
community to communicate and interact with each other through a number
of tools including: online discussions, collaborative working spaces,
an updatable calendar of events, member profiles, reports of institutes,
the sharing of files and papers including sample curricula and best
practices from local communities, and much, much more.
We encourage you to
participate in the “Global Classroom” and “Networking” communities
which are open to anyone who registers to the site. The Global
Classroom is a topic oriented space designed to facilitate discussions
on issues of relevance to the peace education community. From
child labor to disarmament, we encourage you to post your thoughts,
research questions, or share your educational strategies on any of
these topics. The Networking Community is organized geographically
and is intended as a space to introduce yourself and your work within
your region or community. If you are looking for a peace education
event or workshop within your region we encourage you to visit the
Networking community. If you post something on either the Global
Classroom or Networking Community you will automatically be notified
by email if someone should respond to you.
