The best education comes from the heart.
WE MAKE PEACE is dedicated to peace practice.
We are a non-profit organization working with Peace Education internationally through our materials, workshops and campaigns.
We invite you to join us in the quest to make the world a peaceful place.
Together we can investigate new, creative solutions on how to live in peace and harmony with each other, with nature, and all living things.
We wish for a free, sustainable world governed by unconditional love of all living things. Our core teachings evolve around principles of Positivity, Love, Empathy, Acceptance, Democracy and true Equality. We teach human rights and creative-positive-based solutions to conflicts.
Peace is about you and me. It will always be relevant. Now and forever.
Peace practice is about learning how to make and find peace within, with each other and engage peacefully with our environment.
Peace Education is about teaching children practical tools to ensure healthy, sustainable progress.
Throughout history we have learned that war and violence will produce more war and violence. Teaching children how to practice peace is an important step towards a peaceful world and a peaceful future.
If we are serious about living in peaceful societies Peace Education has to be prioritized rights from the top.
Teachers, educators, children and everyone interested in making the world a better place. Lets connect.
We work to incorporate peace education into schools internationally through our educational materials, workshops and campaigns, targeted for the 8-13yrs.
Together with the local councils, schools, esteemed charities and organisations, and with a high profile list of artists and ambassadors we put peace learning into play in a fun, engaging and inspirational way.
HISTORY
Founder, Marie Mamonia started the nationwide campaign in Copenhagen, Denmark in AW/2007-08. She is the author of the children’s book ‘A Recipe For Peace’ and comprised the educational materials in collaboration with teachers, artists and humanitarian organizations. Marie also directed the school projects, which ran in more than 140 individual school classes.
The Danish campaign ended with a moving exhibition showcasing an impressive 100 artworks on the subject of ‘peace’ made by pupils at the participating schools. This great volunteer initiative laid the foundation, by which all future campaigns spring from.
