EDUCATION FOR PEACE: THE INCREASING IMPORTANCE

Journal Title: SVIETIMAS: POLITIKA, VADYBA, KOKYBE - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 1

Abstract

It is obvious, that a qualitatively new attitude is necessary to education, notwithstanding this, that education possibilities are wide indeed, there are plenty of intellectual as well as technical means for educational purpose realisation. In any case, values remain the centre of attention. And this is one of the most problematic spheres. One can observe constantly rising conflicts in the world, the consequences of which are severe. Thus, peace pedagogy, having been rather popular in the years of Cold war, has to come back to the young generation education process, of course, with the renewed understanding, content and realisation ways. Education for peace, as a continual process, leading to peace culture growth and support, should occupy a suitable position in children and youth education in the nearest decades. It can be reasonably asserted, that education for peace is the means, which will enable the societies to solve rising civilisation challenges. Education science theorists, methodologists and practitioners should act together, seeking to prepare new directions, education techniques for peace education. In the world full of constraint, violence and aggression, learning peace since childhood is inevitably important, changing human thinking, forming common coexistence understanding.
