Schools for Peace is an educational program empowering schools to prevent and combat school related violence. We develop partnership with schools and deliver our well researched and proven peace programs focusing on 3 core areas of self-esteem, conflict management and nonviolence.

Annually we organize the Schools for Peace Summit a gathering of student leaders from Peace club network established in various partner schools. The inaugural event was launched in 2019. The purpose of this convention is to empower students with leadership skills and inspire to become positive change agents in their schools.
