The CEAP Programs Committee held a back-to-back justice and peace workshop and gender mainstreaming workshop on July 22-24, 2010 at the Brahma Kumaris Center, Tagaytay City. A total of eighteen (18) participants came from Regions 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11 and NCR. There were nine (9) trainers for justice and peace while five (5) for gender mainstreaming.
The workshop aimed at revisiting CEAP programs and advocacies related to justice and peace as well as on gender; identifying from schools' best practices important related peace and gender elements to strengthen the basic and tertiary education curricula especially of CEAP schools; developing parts of relevant instructional modules; and formulating guidelines for creating a culture of peace and gender fair culture. Participants were distributed into two (2) workshops, the justice and peace education workshop with 10 participants and the gender mainstreaming workshop with 8 participants.
The participants agreed to meet again, if resources would permit, for a trainer's training workshop to further enhance their skills toward developing more educators and advocates in justice and peace and gender fairness in schools. The participants will conduct echo seminars in their respective schools.
