Here is an a short animation we recently put together showing the work we do at BPEC.   This video is also posted on our YouTube channel.

The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) are currently campaigning by saying No to Nuclear Power.Goverment spin doctors and the nuclear industry myth makers are working overtime repackaging nuclear power as a 'green' solution to climate change,But nuclear power is no fix,it's not quick and its not worth the risk.

Nuclear power is not the answer - it is not carbon-free. The whole nuclear cycle from uranium mining onwards produces more greenhouse gases than most renewable energy sources, with up to 50% more emissions than wind power. Doubling nuclear power in the UK would only reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 8% and this would come too late as each power station takes at least ten years to be up and running.

Fairlight Primary School borrowed posters, maps and peace related resources from the Brighton Peace and Environment Centre to contribute to their Festival of ‘Learning and Peace’ art project in June. Prisoners of conscience locked up by military regimes around the world will now receive letters and pictures from hundreds of Sussex youngsters.

The young people created sculptures and art work based around their own interpretations of peace and displayed them in their peace and tranquility garden at the school, as well as at Amnesty International's 50th Birthday Celebration at West Hill Community Centre on 18th June.

Caroline Lucas talks to Brighton Peace and Environment Centre about Brighton, sustainable living and easy ways to make small changes.

Caroline Lucas is a happy lady. Britain’s first Green MP has got the backing of the UK’s first Green-led city council in Brighton & Hove.

In an exclusive interview with Loretta Flockhart, Caroline talks about the Brighton Peace & Environment Centre, taking local action and her love of the city’s art scene.

BPEC’s school team has worked closely with lecturers and students from the BA in Primary Education at the University of Brighton to incorporate international education and global citizenship in their courses and to explore the benefits these topics can make to the primary school curriculum.

“I believe that the students are very inspired by teaching the global citizenship theme. This term they gave some most thoughtful, innovative presentations and the thinking, sensitivity and consideration which went into the work was a joy to see.” - Kevin Fossey (Senior Lecturer, University of Brighton)
