TOLERANCE DAY

2020 LIVING FOR THE FUTURE:
​
POST CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND MOVING FORWARD

The 16th November was established as the UN International Day for Tolerance in 1995 in response to the racial and religious wars in Bosnia and Rwanda. It was designed to educate people about the need for tolerance in society and to help them understand the potentially devastating results if a society fosters and feeds off bigotry and intolerance.

Particular skills are being developed in our learning materials for 2020 and these have been colour coded in the overview for ease of use by teachers:
  • listening and communication    
  • building empathy    
  • controlling emotions
  • problem solving

Conflict seems to be a constant in human society, so learning how to move beyond it towards peace is one of the most important things we can teach our children. One of the first steps towards resolving conflict is embedding tolerance into the everyday. 
 
The need for fairness is a universal truth for children and building on that as the basis for how they approach each other, and the world in which we live, can only improve their relationships and their approach to the social contract.
 
A focus on what we have in common, from responding to emergencies, doing no harm and building a peaceful future together, can transform the way our societies work. Mutual understanding and dialogue underpin a better world.

Our specially written books will engage children in critical thinking around understanding perspectives, religious tolerance, handling misinformation, the complex nature of truth/opinion/bias. Please let us know if you want to receive a free book pack for your school.
