The activities in this Pestalozzi training unit focus on developing a culture of peace and collaboration among pupils, with special emphasis on dealing with incidents of violent behaviour and bullying among primary school children. The activities are designed to lead the participants from a self-centered attitude to a collaborative one, and group reactions to conflicts, images of others and communication patterns. By the end of the training unit participants will understand the importance of acknowledging other people’s feelings, adopting different perspectives and developing a deeper understanding of how the self and group attitude interrelate and contribute to the resolution of conflicts.
