History for Peace<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The newest project under the PeaceWorks umbrella\u2014\u00a0is a network for history teachers and educators in the subcontinent. The objective is the teaching and learning of history for peace and understanding, through exploring multi disciplinary and creative approaches with emphasis on the arts.<\/p>\n

We have held two annual\u00a0conferences on Teaching History, reaching out to over 200 educators and members of civil society. Our next conference \u2018 The Idea of India\u2019 will be held in August, in the memory of our friend and benefactor,\u00a0Kozo Yamamura.<\/p>\n

Share Stories Open Minds<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The PeaceWorks storytelling project\u2014sparks the imagination and plants vital ideas through fun and games as children are introduced to the infinite world of stories that inculcate the idea of \u2018living with difference\u2019. Active for over six\u00a0years now, the project has reached out to over 1000 children in many non-conventional schools for the underprivileged across Calcutta.<\/p>\n

We are currently in the process of restructuring it into an internship program.<\/p>\n
