Patchwork ''Dove of peace''

Primary (classes of 8P)

As part of the national Eduki competition 2019/2020, students from the École des Palettes in the canton of Geneva made a patchwork on the theme of peace. The 75 students from 8P the establishment participated in the patchwork by each making a dove that symbolizes peace. Each dove was subsequently sewn to make a single patchwork. Students and teachers were able to collaborate in order to carry out this work, they also had the opportunity to visit organizations that promote peace, for example the ICRC. This project enabled them to tackle different themes, such as the promotion of peace, social ties, non-discrimination as well as the link with children's rights. The students were therefore able to diversify their reflection on the theme of peace while creating an artistic work.
