'Inspiring action through learning about the world'
Goal statement For Sussex residents to understand the links between their own lives and actions and those of others, and contribute to a just, peaceful and sustainable world.
Brighton Peace and Environment Centre works with schools, community groups and individuals in Sussex to engage in learning activities around global debates. These debates may be around issues of social justice, identity and diversity, peace and conflict, environmental sustainability and interdependence. What we believe:
In encouraging dialogue and debate about global concerns we recognise that:
In light of this, our approaches need to be reflective and exploratory and in an ethos of shared learning. Our approach encourages:
In engaging people with dialogue and debate on global issues, we hope that people will be able to make their own decisions and feel empowered to respond through creating changes to their daily lives or taking positive actions which contribute to a just, peaceful and sustainable world. Positive actions which people may choose to take include direct action and protest. As an education centre we are not involved in direct action or protest ourselves but we do support people to access information about local and national campaigns and protests which are peaceful, do not use the language of violence and are within the bounds of the law.Mission Statement The Brighton Peace and Environment Centre aims to raise awareness and understanding of social justice, peace, sustainable development and environmental protection matters by providing information, education and positive practical solutions to global problems. --------------------------------------------------------------------- We are now heading towards our 30th birthday and looking to celebrate our previous successful work and build on it in the years to come.
