Peace Education Through Native Studies (ages 14-19).
This camp will explore peace building by focusing on the local Native history and population and learning how to create understanding, respect and connection between different cultures and worldviews. There will be guest speakers, films viewed, drama productions and peace-centred ceremonies.

PeaceCamps are created by local students who attended the PeaceJam Nobel Laureate Conference. Designed to accommodate 12 participants, the camps are facilitated by 3 youth leaders, guided by 2 experienced adult mentors. We will be exploring issues surrounding peace in our world within a safe, trusted and beautiful natural environment.

PeaceCamp is FREE! Supported by Columbia Basin Trust.
