Peace Education Approaches among Younger and Older Students in Schools. Peace Education Reports. No. 8.

This report used data from an interview study with international experts to examine the extent that peace education is relevant at various ages and to look at how the age of pupils affect the design of a pedagogy for peace. The two parts of the report provided replies from 50 experts representing 22 countries. Part 1 attempts to summarize major aspects of the relationship of age level to education for peace. In several cases, the interviewees made general comments claiming that in actual fact, age differences were of considerably less importance than imagined. Some interviewees emphasized the fact that little is known in the area. Part 2 provides detailed documentation of the 50 interview answers. (CK)
