Peace education in Montreal and Latin America
Building peace in classrooms and with communities
Teacher training, talks, teaching materials and curriculum design support with an intercultural approach, for schools and organizations that want to make living together a daily practice.
What we offer
Four ways to support your organization, in Spanish or English: in person in Montreal or in your city, or online anywhere in the world.
Teacher training and workshops
Hands-on workshops for school teams on peace education and culture, conflict resolution and living together.
Talks and keynotes
Talks that connect peace education research with concrete experiences alongside communities in Latin America.
Design and review of teaching materials
Guides, games, activities and audiovisual resources for peace education, created from scratch or by improving the materials your organization already has.
Curriculum design support
Guidance to design or renew educational programs with an intercultural, culturally relevant approach.
Our approach
Rooted in culture
We start from each community’s knowledge, languages and history instead of applying imported models.
Research that serves practice
Every proposal draws on current research in peace education and becomes concrete tools for the classroom.
Built together
We design alongside teachers, students and communities, using participatory methods.
