The programme

Peace in Your Hands

A teachers' manual for working with children aged 8–12. Completely free for any school — and already transforming classrooms around the world.

Teachers report a more harmonious and positive atmosphere, with children connecting and making friends more easily. The Dutch Ministry of Education recommends it for every school with refugee children.

Used in rehabilitation programmes for child soldiers in Rwanda, and by Women for Peace in Syria.
