Start of the project "Promoting Social Cohesion through Peace Clubs"

A project aimed at promoting tolerance, culture of peace and social cohesion at the local level by supporting the activities of Peace Clubs.

The project is implemented by the Public Foundation ‘Institute for Peace and Development’ (IPD) in partnership with DVV International and with the financial support of GIZ. It aims to promote tolerance, culture of peace, social cohesion, at the local level through supporting the activities of Peace clubs.

The project will include the following activities:

Training of trainers. Training for 20 coordinators of peace clubs - school teachers from Osh and Issyk-Kul oblasts on forum-theatre methodology.
Local workshops. After the training, coordinators will conduct 10 workshops for 140 students, members of peace clubs, teaching them the basics of forum theatre.
Theatre performances. Theatre performances will be staged in 10 communities to discuss important social and community issues with the involvement of the local community
Youth Initiatives. Peace Clubs will implement their own initiatives and participate in an online campaign, promoting positive change in their communities.
Forum theatre methodology. Forum theatre is a performance that serves as a tool to engage community members in discussions about local challenges. Unlike traditional theatre, where the audience simply observes, forum theatre invites active participation and discussion of complex situations. Students, their parents, teachers, representatives of local authorities, law enforcement agencies, and religious leaders work together to develop algorithms of action, forming models of successful behaviour. This method promotes the development of critical thinking, communication, co-operation, creativity, leadership, social responsibility and self-confidence among students. It is also useful for teachers, parents and community leaders, as discussions after performances help to build mutual understanding and bring generations closer together.

Peace Clubs are voluntary associations of students, teachers and community leaders working to promote a culture of peace. They play an important role in building skills for peaceful interaction and social responsibility among young people. Peace Clubs are integrated into extracurricular activities and promote the development of soft skills in students, such as active participation in the community and creating an atmosphere of respect, co-operation and mutual understanding. Today Peace Clubs represent one of the largest networks of community-based organisations in Kyrgyzstan, bringing together more than 5,000 active peacebuilders and covering more than 250 schools in all 7 provinces of the country. 
Thus, project activities are aimed at the personal development of young people, developing analytical and critical thinking, giving them the opportunity to communicate, learn from each other and jointly develop media and community projects aimed at positive changes in their immediate environment, thus increasing their sense of autonomy and responsibility.
