Transformative Pedagogy for Peace-building: A Guide for Teachers
Intended Audience
Teachers
- UNESCO International Institute for Capacity Building in Africa (UNESCO – IICBA)
“This guide is designed to build the capacity of teachers so that they are informed and empowered in why and how to educate for peace-building. It offers an analysis of conflict, examines the role of ethics, expands on the elements of transformative pedagogy and provides practical tools to assess learners’ understanding of peacebuilding concepts and skills. It concludes with 20 engaging activities to support experiential learning.
Transformative pedagogy empowers both teachers and learners. It encourages learners to be reflective and critical thinkers who are able to contribute meaningfully as members of local and global communities. It also redefines role of teachers. Teachers become facilitators with the disposition, knowledge, skills and commitment to support students to develop their full potential as peace-builders.”

SDGs LINKAGES
The resource is most closely linked to the training and skills of teachers (which can be applied to all kinds of educators), which is the basis of SDG 4.4. The resource can support, in particular, SDG 4.7 (Education for Sustainable Development). Promoting effective, inclusive learning environments supports SDG 4.A, and safe and welcoming public spaces supports SDG 11.7. Promoting a culture of peace can support a range of SDG targets, for example 5.1 (end discrimination against women and girls), 5.2 (preventing violence against women and girls), 10.2 (support universal social, economic and political inclusion) and 16.1 (Significantly reduce all forms of violence and related death rates everywhere), 16.2 (End abuse, exploitation, trafficking and all forms of violence against and torture of children) and 16.3 (Promote the rule of law at the national and international levels and ensure equal access to justice for all). The focus on partnerships supports both SDGs 17.16 and 17.17 (international and national partnerships respectively).
