What does peace mean? What does a peaceful society look like? We will brainstorm more general definitions of peace together as a class. Next, we will share our own definitions of peace based on our personal background and values with one another and learn about the diversity of perspectives on a peaceful world.

What causes conflict, and how can negative manifestations of conflict, like bullying, be treated and prevented? The third of four sessions in The Teaching Peace Initiative core curriculum, Differences and Prejudice will focus on these questions through a series of activities, discussion and opportunities for self-reflection.
