IIPE 2008 THEME: Critical Pedagogy: Educating
for Justice and Peace
The IIPE is not a traditional conference but rather a “learning community” in
which the organizers and participants work together to nurture an inclusive,
highly interactive learning environment. It is an intensive multicultural and
cooperative learning opportunity in which participants learn from and with each
other about substantive peace issues and interactive teaching approaches. The
IIPE is also an opportunity for networking and community building among those
who educate and work for a culture of peace in the host region and around the
world. For more information including fees, application, scholarships, and more
