Create a Culture of Peace!

You can become a Peacemaker!

Our workshops use life experiences, hands-on exercises and games to find peaceful responses in situations that otherwise might lead to aggression and hostility. This dynamic 3-day program is also a first step in training to lead peace programs in your community. Learn to:
