"Peace is a culture that we create by putting it in the curriculum for young people, through creating this next generation where young people get a chance to go across borders, across cultures, to learn more about each other's life, to create a global community, learn about opportunities for helping others. It's investing in peace and tolerance training, ending the gap between rich and poor."
-- Craig Kielburger




“The most effective kind of education is that a child should play amongst lovely things.” - Plato

If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.
Mohandas Gandhi

It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.
Frederick Douglass

The greatest truth must be recognition that in every man, in every child is the potential for greatness.
-- Robert F. Kennedy
