The Role of Education in Peacebuilding : Case Study – Nepal (August 2011)
Abstract:
The Nepal Case Study is part of a UNICEF research project on Education and Peacebuilding in Post-Conflict Contexts.The objectives of this research are to: 1. Locate peacebuilding initiatives supported through education programming within broader approaches being undertaken in the case study countries; 2. Document country-specific education interventions where education has played an important role in contributing to peace or where it has missed the opportunity to do so; 3. Provide guidance on education interventions contributing to peacebuilding based on models and approaches used by UNICEF and its partners to initiate, promote and implement education initiatives in support of peacebuilding; and 4. Identify strengths, weaknesses and recommendations for UNICEF-supported education programming as it relates to peacebuilding. UNICEF’s most extensive education activity relating to peacebuilding in Nepal has been through the Schools as Zones of Peace (SZOP) campaign, and the literature indicates that the experience of using the concept has been more extensive in Nepal than in almost any other country. Accordingly, this is taken as a key focus of this report.
