Per la Pau / Peace in Progress

You are reading the first issue of the ICIP electronic magazine, PER LA PAU/PEACE IN PROGRESS

The magazine, which will initially be published seven times a year, in Catalan and English (and in the future, also in Spanish), aims to provide analysis and viewpoints. Its objective is to stimulate opinion and spread ideas, especially those fostered at the ICIP and in similar centres. In short, it will strive to be a medium that generates opinion, stimulates debate and has an effect on ideas and action, at a national and international level.

This publication by the Catalan Federation of NGOs for Peace welcomes the inclusion of Education for Citizenship in the school curriculum, providing that this subject does not become a mere statement of good intentions, but is instead taught with consistency in its content, methodology, attitudes and also educational times and structures. In other words, it should increase critical awareness and enable learning of how to think and act in other ways.
