Özet

Problem Statement: Wars between countries and violence cause immense destruction to societies. Education is one of the essential factors that will aid in stopping violence and establishing social peace. "Peace education", which has emerged as the consequence of various approaches regarding peace from an educational perspective, is a sine qua non component of teaching tolerance, sharing and honesty to adults and children. The main purpose of peace education is to encourage students to develop different strategies that would provide social justice, not only in their countries, but also around the world.
