Actors and spectators of peace

Secondary II (2nd year of swiss Graduation approx. 17-20 years)

As part of the Eduki national competition 2019/2020, the 2nd year students of the Renens high school in the canton of Vaud carried out a project on the perception of war in Switzerland. The pupils wanted to create an exhibition including testimonies as well as educational activities related to the theme. Thus, the students were able to reflect on the daily processes that lead to peace in the world. This project enabled the students to realize that the concept of peace is "pluri-interdisciplinary", because in order to build a peaceful environment, various factors such as access to education, gender equality and respect for natural resources are involved in the process of achieving sustainable peace.
