The TWB Peace Education Program online course supports teachers in their professional development as peace educators and connects them with like-minded educators around the world through a supportive virtual learning environment. The course material contains three modules, and progresses from the theoretical to the practical, providing a strong foundation in peace education theory and inviting participants to explore ways in which they can implement peace education in their contexts.
This is the self-paced version of the course and is available for free. The instructor-led version is available for a fee of $100. Please click here to learn more about the instructor-led course.
Module 1 explores peace education theory through its history, definitions, and core concepts. Module 2 focuses on the scope of peace education, and encompasses different approaches to the field. Module 3 emphasizes the practice of peace education, including pedagogy, communication, and how to build a culture of peace in your school and community.
Throughout this course, participants will
- understand key theories and principles of the peace education field,
- self-reflect on how these ideas apply to participants in their daily lives, and
- apply these theories and principles in their teaching contexts.
Participants will be asked to engage with the material and apply it to their own lives and teaching settings. This will be done through blog posts, discussion forums, and the final project, which is a practical application of peace education in your setting.
