Houses of peace

Primary (6-7 grade, from 10 to 11 years old)

As part of the Eduki national competition 2019/2020, the students of the primary school of Vésenaz in the canton of Geneva produced "Houses of peace". This artistic work sparked a reflection among the students on the theme of peace. They were able to carry out a collective work which favored mutual help between the pupils and a climate of peace within the class. These wooden houses illustrate their ideas of a home, well-being and peace. The students were also able to discuss the various sustainable development objectives, for example the fight against poverty. They thus understood the interdependence of each objective and their impact. Finally, the students exhibited their artistic works within the school establishment, also arousing the reflection and awareness of other students with regard to the objectives of sustainable development, their importance and their impact in our world.
