About Rauhankasvatusinstituutti – The Peace Education Institute

For us, peace education in practice means strengthening and building resilience and trust in society, encouraging active and participatory citizenship, as well as solving everyday life’s conflicts in a nonviolent manner. It is also about making power structures and privileges more visible and recognising, managing, and transforming hate speech, racism, and exclusion in educators’ work. We at RKI are educators and practitioners of peace, who treat these subjects with concrete tools and methods. For example, we think about how to build trust toward democratic decision-making among young people, how to transform hate speech in everyday work contexts and how to encounter and channel justified frustration into more progressive action.
