Current PROGRAM
PEACEBUILDING AND ADVOCACY
Peacebuilding and Advocacy - is a program designed to promote education and peace for conflict-ridden areas. Through this program, S4E is able to create projects which can benefit these communities. Our goals are to improve access to education, work with existing schools, provide school supply kits and build sustainable schools which will continue to function for future generations. By creating this program, we have been able to give children living in conflict in countries like South Sudan, the tools to help them develop their new nation in order to lead into a new era of peace and growth. The Peacebuilding and Advocacy is mainly about "conflict-sensitivity' and "peace building" built into different types of education. That means not just building schools but providing the RIGHT KIND OF EDUCATION within them.
The people - children, youth and adults, the whole community - need to be strengthened and empowered through education to know what to do to avoid conflicts, avoiding them escalating when they do start, how to endure the conflicts with strength and wisdom and how to calm them down. Therefore the PA program encompasses a whole spectrum of education programs that make sure to include:
QULAITY EDUCATION
GIRLS EDUCATION
CREATIVE ARTS AND SPORTS
EQUITY AND INCLUSION
EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT
LIFE SKILLS
TEACHER TRAINING
CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT
LIVELIHOOD TRAINING/MICRO BUSINESS
