Acting in Switzerland
for a peaceful and inclusive school

Our mission at
Switzerland

In Switzerland, as elsewhere, children and young people are evolving in a changing educational environment, marked by growing relational, emotional and societal challenges.

These realities underline the importance of changing educational practices and strengthening the quality of classroom relationships.

Graines de Paix works alongside teachers and other stakeholders, providing educational resources, training and support tailored to the realities of the field.

In this way, our programs help create more inclusive learning environments, conducive to student engagement and fulfillment.
