International Center for Cooperation and Conflict Resolution @ Teachers College :: Mission and Objectives Peacemaker Violence Prevention Lesson Plans and Education K-12 The PeaceMakers curriculum is a proven-effective K-12 public school-based program developed by the FreeWay Project in 1996. It has been field-tested in hundreds of Missouri classrooms. The curriculum is based on the concept that violence begins with attitudes of mind, progresses through angry speech, and results in hostile actions. It uses dozens of interactive games and activities to teach students to speak courteously and treat others politely, with dignity and respect . . . the same way they would like to be spoken to and treated. PeaceMakers curriculum uses fresh lesson plans and challenging learning activities to teach three fundamental principles: 1. Be sure you know the truth before you speak; control what you say and how you say it; do not criticize or condemn anyone personally. 2. 3. The curriculum is user-friendly.

INCORE : Home Page untitled The Peace Wheel - Culture There are many ways each and every one of us can be part of the peace movement. You don't need to make radical life changes in order to affect change in the world. Look at the following eight pathways, which one speaks to you? Governance/Law/Security Imagine that everyone in the world, the Earth and all its inhabitants and land masses, are protected in a positive, loving manner. Writing a letter or e-mail to an elected official to support positive legislature and government practices.Participating in a march or celebration for peace or other positive cause.Voting in elections.Education/Media Imagine education and literacy for all. Calling a local news station to cover a positive and "feel good" story. Imagine businesses striving to benefit the world and its inhabitants as a whole, not just its shareholders. Imagine people taking care of their bodies and relationships as they would a brand-new child - with love, peace, and tolerance.
