PEACE Camp – (Preventing, Engaging and Addressing Conflict Effectively) Sessions served as a foundation to useful, practical conflict resolution skills that kids can apply to their every day lives and also hopefully take back to their schools and families to further develop the abilities and ideas of those around them in dealing with conflict in a positive and effective manner. The camp was chock full of full of fun as we had the kids doing all types of crazy icebreakers, playing silly games, and acting out an endless number of role plays. We've posted a lot of photos below from the camp and hopefully they'll speak for themselves. It was a long couple of weeks, but definitely very rewarding. By the end of camp we all really felt that things went well considering it was completely developed from the ground up by only a few of us over the course of 3 or 4 weeks. The piloting process proved to be effective in helping to work out the kinks for future session (the second camp will take place July 26th and run fopr twop weeks as well). The best part about working at summer camp is that the kids continue to keep us young. If interested you can also read more about the George Price Center for Peace at www.gpcbelize.com
