Vision
While many universities, government agencies and civil society organizations devote considerable resources to the study of conflict, violence and war, there are relatively few peace programs dedicated to a systematic, sustained plan of action to educate children and youth, their parents, teachers and leaders in the principles of peace. Consequently, generations repeat the mistakes of former generations and conflict and violence become permanent facets of human societies.
The main purpose of EFP-International and its sister Institutes is to develop and implement peace education programs in all parts of the world for all segments of human society. Through in-depth, systematic and sustained programs of Education for Peace (EFP), every generation of new leaders and citizens is equipped with the necessary insights and skills to decrease the occurrence and intensity of conflict to prevent its descent into violence and war. More importantly, they are then able to dedicate their talents and energies to the creation of a sustained and progressive culture of peace.
