The International Institute on Peace Education (IIPE) 2010 will take place in Colombia this coming July. The Institute is being co-organized by the National Peace Academy (home of the IIPE secretariat) and Fundaci?n Escuelas de Paz in partnership with the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation and Development (AECID) the Colombian National Ministry of Education and a consortium of organizations invested in furthering peace education in Colombia. The IIPE is not a conference but rather a "learning community" in which the organizers and participants work together to nurture an inclusive, highly interactive learning environment toward practicing a culture of peace. It is a multicultural and cooperative, intensive experience in which participants interact through plenaries, workshops, reflection groups and informal activities to learn from and with each other about substantive peace issues and interactive teaching approaches. The IIPE is also an opportunity for networking and community building among those who educate and work for a culture of peace in the host region and around the world.

The week-long Peacebuilding Peacelearning Intensive is designed for individuals and organizations who hope to launch new peacebuilding and change initiatives or enhance existing efforts. Participants will be coached in the design and development of a strategic peacebuilding plan that they will take back to and implement in their community or initiate in an organization they already work with. The plan will be assessed and evaluated by instructors and peers, and the National Peace Academy will provide ongoing guidance for project development after completion of the Intensive. The event is open to all citizens seeking to establish a humanly secure, democratic, just, healthy and sustainable United States. Business and government leaders, social entrepreneurs, community organizers, educators, NGO and non-profit professionals, UN officials, activists, university students, and parents are encouraged to enroll.
