Resolving Conflict: Educating For Peace

About WMQPEP

The West Midlands Quaker Peace Education Project is sponsored by Quakers in the West Midlands.  The work of the Project is undertaken by a team of education workers with a wide variety of professional skills.

The Project was set up in 1984 in response to a concern of local Quakers.

The Project aims to develop an understanding of how conflict, if resolved creatively and without violence, can be a positive force for change.

We believe that every individual is special and that no-one should accept that violence and injustice are inevitable.

We wish to help schools to become places where people feel secure enough to grow in whatever way is appropriate for them.
