Peacemaking involves resolving disputes through collaboration rather than resorting to conflict. However, peacemaking can sometimes feel challenging, especially among young people who need patience and strong communication skills to achieve outcomes that satisfy all parties involved. The All About Peacemaking handout describes the qualities of a peacemaker, such as kind, forgiving, and compassionate. It also differentiates what a peace-maker and a peace-breaker is, and suggests ways to right your wrongs and rules for solving problems peacefully. With this handout, kids and teens may learn how to be kinder, calmer, and better at communicating with others. Schools can enhance these abilities by incorporating activities that encourage students to practice conflict resolution. Our Peacemaking Worksheets pair nicely with this handout, which include a Peacemaking Through Conflict Resolution activity. *This item is an instant digital download.
