The Peace in Practice Training Course took place this November, and it gathered 30 people from multiple countries. The aim of the project is to inspire the participants to be and act as a multiplier/messenger of peace, and create a chain of follow-up actions for promoting and living peace on a local, national, and international level.

To deepen the participants’ knowledge and understanding of the concept of peace, we learned about peace in its different levels: peace with oneself, peace with others, and peace with nature. We also learned about non-violent communication, emotional intelligence, and peace in the world.

It is very satisfying to know that participants felt in a safe space and that they were inspired and motivated by other people’s stories and ideas. Some of them have already started planning their follow-up actions to be changemakers!

You can still join!
