Peace Partners organises two taster events in Croydon

Peace Partners organised two Peace Education Programme taster workshops in Croydon in December 2019. Participants came from a variety of towns and cities in the UK representing a range of organisations, including individuals who were considering hosting the course.

Chrissie Waite, who facilitated the workshops, said 'It was wonderful to meet with people who are considering hosting a Peace Education Programme in their own charitable organisation or community group. Here we are during reflection time working on activities which helped us to focus on the themes in question on the two afternoons: Appreciation; Inner Strength; Self Awareness; and Clarity. A heartfelt and meaningful experience was had by all. Thank you to all attendees and volunteers for a wonderful couple of afternoons, I'm sure there'll be more!"

Peace Partners​ is the recipient of a ​National Lottery 2019 Community Fund Award​. One of the many​ ​projects it has been able to help support through the award is the ​Get Creative with Peace​ initiative organised in Brixton, south London by Celebrate Life Events​ ​(CLE). CLE host regular cross-community and musical celebration events in London which have a focus on creativity and peace.  CLE held its initial Get Creative with Peace workshop in April 2019 and you can read about the event on CLE’s website  celebrate-life.co.uk/get-creative-with-peace​.

Following its success a further five of these interactive workshops were hosted during the summer, made possible in part by significant funding from Peace Partners’ Lottery Award.
​The workshop was developed to be used with teenagers, especially in London schools and youth centres, as well as with other community groups and was piloted as a means of introducing people to the internationally acclaimed, Prem Rawat Foundation Peace Education Programme.

Each of the five interactive workshops included video clips of peace ambassador Prem Rawat’s simple message, alongside activities, reflection and creative expressions through poetry and art. The guest facilitators were selected especially for the specific audience of each workshop. Overall 137 people attended, and a number of attendees came to several of the workshops.  
That the workshops were a real success can be gauged by some of the comments of the participants themselves:  ‘Absolutely amazing.’ ‘Absolutely brilliant, I loved it.’ 
‘Every human being deserves at least one lesson that shows them they are creative.’ ‘The videos really made me reflect.’ It was ​completely different to anything I’ve been to before.’  ‘It was really freeing, I’m leaving really uplifted … so thank you.’
