Children and young people are growing and learning in a world undergoing profound change, shaped by digital technology, artificial intellignece and increasingly complex social relationships.
Graines de Paix empowers them with the skills they need to navigate today’s world. We develop educational resources and provide support for those involved in education. Our actions strengthen children’s and young people’s relational, emotional and civic skills, helping to prevent violence and build more peaceful societies.
Why take action?
Navigating today’s world requires far more than academic knowledge. Children need relational, emotional and civic skills to thrive, cooperate and meet the challenges of the digital age and artificial intelligence.
When these skills are lacking, tensions rise, relationships weaken and violence finds fertile ground. By acting from childhood onwards, education can transform these dynamics. This is where Graines de Paix takes action.
Our approach
Our pedagogical approach connects academic learning with the development of essential life skills.
It helps students build confidence, develop agency, strengthen emotional intelligence, and engage more fully in their learning.
Grounded in active and experiential methods, it places dialogue, cooperation and experimentation at the heart of education, fostering lasting change in school practices and relationships.
Our actions
Graines de Paix acts where it all begins: at the heart of educational environments.
We design practical teaching tools, train education professionals, and support communities in embedding positive, non-violent educational practices into everyday life.
Our actions enable children and young people to learn differently, to cooperate, to engage in dialogue and to become active agents in their own lives from an early age.
Our impact
Students develop confidence, a sense of agency and a genuine enjoyment of learning.Relationships improve, tensions decrease and classrooms become spaces for cooperation, dialogue and respect.
These lasting transformations help improve the school climate, prevent violence and foster a culture of peace, both at school and in society.
