Peace Studies challenges learners to take a penetrating look at what peace is and at the underlying roots of violence, conflict and war. They will explore the interrelatedness of human rights, justice and peace; critically examine the concept of nonviolence; and determine steps they can take to contribute to creating a culture of peace and nonviolence in their hearts, community and world.
