Peace Education
NET is pleased to fund CND’s Peace Education work, which aims to empower young people with knowledge on peace and nuclear issues and support them in making their own mind up on these matters.
The CND Peace Education programme does not campaign or try to influence students’ views. Sessions and resources are impartial, and are geared at getting young people actively involved in exploring the issues, supporting independent thinking and encouraging discussion and debate.
Each year School Speakers from CND Peace Education deliver free workshops and talks to thousands of students in schools and colleges across England, as well free training for hundreds of teachers on how best to explore controversial issues in the classroom. If you would like to book a session, or find out more, please email peaceeducation@cnduk.org
CND Peace Education also has five education resources, all of which are available free of charge. Thousands of the packs are downloaded or requested as hard copies annually. The packs are updated every few years to reflect global developments, and teacher and student feedback.
