How We Empower Peace

The goal of the Experiential Peacebuilding Activities Manual is to capitalize on the proven effectiveness of traditional experiential learning activities and to customize them for peacebuilding and conflict transformation purposes.  With your support we will be providing a quality resource for facilitators to utilize as they engage people impacted by conflict.  Through this Manual, facilitators will learn how to empower the peacebuilding outcomes relevant to each activity, and foster meaningful debrief conversations and dialogues with participants, focusing on how to bring these key peacebuilding learnings home to their own communities.  

The 30 activities contained in the Manual are interactive, group experiences which are physically and mentally challenging, stimulating the mind, body, emotions, and attitudes of participants. They are guided, transformative experiences using proven peacebuilding tools such as facilitated dialogue, interpersonal conflict resolution skills training, and appreciative inquiry, combined with proven outdoor experiential learning methods. This dynamic combination is effective in building trust, promoting cooperation, teaching tolerance and respect for differences, breaking down stereotypes, promoting co-existence, and helping to nurture compassion.

The Experiential Peacebuilding Activities Manual is the product of five years of research combined with expedition experience of facilitators working in transboundary protected areas around the globe.

What We Need

We need your support to publish the Experiential Peacebuilding Activities Manual and get it in the hands of the facilitators who will use it to empower peace.  $3,000 will allow us to print 50 Experiential Peacebuilding Manuals and provide some of them free of charge to our partner organizations, and other organizations and individuals working with groups in conflict impacted environments.

Amplifying The Impact

The Experiential Peacebuilding Activities Manual is a multiplier.  To maximize the impact we will train facilitators how to use the manual, and they will receive a copy upon the successful completion of this training.  These facilitators will use this manual with the countless groups of people with whom they work. This will expand the impact of the manual to a much wider circle of people who are training to become Leaders for positive peaceful change in their communities and countries.

Who Are We?

International Peace Park Expeditions (IPPE) is an environmental peacebuilding organization that applies experiential learning within international peace parks to foster an interdisciplinary approach to leadership and collaboration, build a network dedicated to the advancement of peace parks, and support community participation in local development.

We have integrated expertise in both the experiential learning and peacebuilding fields to develop this unique resource to empower people who want to become leaders for peaceful change in their communities.  IPPE provides expedition based, peacebuilding experiences, for people impacted by conflict, which aim to develop the bonds, skills and compassion of leaders, so that they can serve as catalysts for peaceful change in their communities, countries, and the world.  IPPE also provides unique educational experiences bringing participants to the field to learn through experience about environmental peacebuilding initiatives that are building frameworks for collaboration across divisions and borders.
