World without war
By Jytte Svendsen, Denmark

 

I was inspired of the article ”Conflict Resolution in the Humanities” by Lynn Kearney, USA. Read It here

8th grade formed 7 groups. They worked with different subjects:
1. Martin Luther King
2. Ghandi
3. Second World War
4. Woodstock Festival
5. The Balkan War
6. The Cold War
7. The peace movement

The groups should make up one’s mind about why conflicts breaks out. What can we learn from it. How can we encourage people to peacefull coexistence with human rights and democracy.
We used 9 lessons on the project.
