What is Peace School?
Peace School is a year long programme exploring what it means to be a peacemaker in every area of life; local and global.
Peace School is a Community of Learning where participants bring their own experiences and take something away from the experiences of others.
Peace School is designed to give participants the resources to be peace and justice activists within their own spheres of influence.
Peace School seeks to survey the world through a Jesus-centred, Christian understanding of Shalom (peace). While the programme is designed for people wishing to explore Shalom from a Christian perspective we aim to provide a welcoming environment for people of any background or faith who want to explore the rich and fulfilling understanding of the Christian vision of peace.
Peace School runs over a year, and is designed for people to participate in alongside their everyday lives. The community of learning meets for an initial nine day summer school followed by three residential weekends throughout the year. The community of learning continues throughout the year through web-based activities and individual exercises.
