From Conflict to Compassion
Our world is increasingly full of stress, from the way we wreak havoc on the natural world to mental, physical, emotional, harm upon each others and ourselves. It has become harder to build bridges of understanding , communication and compassion to each other and the natural world.
Play for Peace is a global organization & methodology that provides an antidote to this stress, originally developed to build understanding in war torn & conflict communities, it has grown to be a valuable tool to build safety, inclusion and joy for educators and facilitators working with different communities from all walks of life, of all age groups whether in the classroom, in the workplace, at home or outdoors.
