A Clean Environment Fosters Peacefulness

 On Saturday, August 29, our inspiring students from the Center for Peace Education took to the streets of their local community with brooms in hand and peace in their hearts!

Our youth know that a tidy environment doesn't just make a healthier community; YES, indeed, it creates a calm, caring, and peaceful habitat for all.

By sweeping the streets and taking pride in their surroundings, these young leaders are actively building peace from the ground up.

Thank you for your continued love and support as our students lead the way to a brighter, cleaner global village!

Negotiation in Action: Building Bridges for World Peace Day

Preparations are in full swing at the Center for Peace Education as our students get ready to commemorate World Peace Day on September 21!

In the video, our young peacemakers are practicing their performance on Negotiation: The Act of Building Bridges and Finding the Win-Win Solution.

Through this powerful piece, they demonstrate a vital truth: while conflict only destroys, negotiation builds a path to mutual respect. By choosing dialogue over division, former adversaries can shake hands, foster congenial relationships, and build a foundation for lasting, sustainable peace.

Watching our youth bring these principles to life gives us so much hope for the future of our global village!

Thank you for your continued love, prayers, and support as we guide the next generation of bridge builders.

Preparing for World Peace Day: Empowering Young Peacemakers

Approximately one month from now, on September 21, the world will celebrate World Peace Day. For the past 16 years, the Center for Peace Education (CPE) has proudly honored this day with peace parades, songs, and indoor performances across our community.

Our students have already begun rehearsals! From the attachments, this week, they are practicing their mediation drama, "The Broken Bench & The Helper," bringing classroom lessons of dialogue, neutrality, and problem-solving to life on stage.

Thank you so much for your continued love, generosity, and support!

CPE Is Healing the Land, Empowering the Future

Following Liberia’s 14-year civil war (1989–2003), the Center for Peace Education (CPE) dedicated itself to guiding and empowering our youth growing up in post-conflict communities.

Sustainable peace starts in the classroom! Through drawing and storytelling, students like Cherish and Manfred are showing us what they’ve learned, YES Indeed, from managing personal anger to stepping in as mediators and shaking hands to heal disputes.

OH YES! Our children aren't just learning peace; they are living it under the banner of "Healing together, winning together!

Thank you for your continued love and support!

From Classroom Lessons to Real-Life Change

When we assign homework at the Center for Peace Education, we aren't just checking reading and writing; OH YES! We are watching peace take root in their hearts.

As shown in the photos, Swaliho illustrated how a mediator steps in to solve conflict, while Ambulai wrote a powerful story showing why peacemaking tools are urgently needed when tension builds up.

Peace is no longer just a topic on a whiteboard; oh YES indeed, it is becoming a lifestyle for our students!

Thank you for your continued support as we empower the next generation of peace builders.

Personal Pledges: Living Our Principles Every Day

At the Center for Peace Education, learning about values means making a personal commitment to live them. We asked our students to write and sign their own peace pledges (i.e., promising to uphold principles of honesty, respect, and nonviolence).

In, the attached photos, students like Dixon and Manfred wrote inspiring commitments to:

Choose understanding over arguing during tough conversations.

Reject insults, fighting, and division.

Respect and see everyone equally, no matter who they are.

Thank you for your continued support!
