Writing Peace Manual - Training Tools and Resources

Welcome to the central hub of all Writing Peace training tools and resources! Access all materials needed to join other schools, students, teachers, and facilitators around the world in planning and implementing your very own Writing Peace pilot workshop. Use and share these resources to help children (and adults) discover contemporary writing systems in order to better understand and actually practice, intercultural dialogue and a culture of peace.
