Linked with Loreta Navarro-Castro – Philippines, and with The Miriam College.
The Center’s mission is to help advance a culture of peace through education.
A culture of peace is a set of values, modes of behavior and ways of life that reflects respect for life and for human dignity, rejects violence in all its forms, prevents violent conflicts by tackling their root causes, and recognizes the importance of cooperation, tolerance and dialogue.
The Center’s objectives are:
- To institutionalize and strengthen the peace education thrust of Miriam College through faculty training, curriculum development and student development programs;
- To help promote the culture of peace in the larger society by sharing Miriam College’s inspiration, knowledge and experience with other groups and educational institutions, including those that are underserved;
- To network and develop partnerships with other peace-oriented groups and with all people of goodwill towards building a culture of peace.
