Abstract

As part of Sweden's Malmo School of Education's "Preparedness for Peace" project, this paper presents interviews with Hilary Lipkin and Richard Yarwood. Lipkin has served as national coordinator for "Teachers for Peace" and Yarwood ran the Peace Education Project at the Peace Pledge Union in London (England). Both of the interviewees discuss their interpretations of the term "peace education", and such related terms as "disarmament education" and "education for peace." They discuss differences between peace education for older and younger children and examine how schools can contribute to peace education. The document also includes notes about Richard Yarwood and lists some of his publications. (SG)
