La necesidad: ¿Cuál es el problema que tratas de solucionar?
The school is a space of coexistence among children and adolescents with different characteristics, which facilitates the occurrence of conflicts which sometimes translate into acts of violence such as punching, slapping, pushing games, physical assaults and verbal bullying etc. In time, this violence leads to learning challenges and a lack of student attendance, which results in high rates of truancy. For harmony and respect to exist at school, it is essential to have proper administration of the problems that arise, avoiding interference in the process of teaching and learning. In order to accomplish this, new ways of dealing with conflicts should be developed to provide the foundation of a safe school environment.
La solución: ¿Cuál es tu solución? Sé específico.
Empowering students and teachers in the skills of Conflict Resolution in Schools (RCE), using the tenants of the Peer Mediation model so they can deal positively with conflict, which is something natural and inevitable in life. Constructively dealing with problems enables students to promote a greater understanding of themselves and others, and is an opportunity to improve relationships, identify effective solutions to problems, and build awareness so as to assume responsibilities in building a positive school climate etc. thus, the goal of the project is to create a non-violent conflict resolution that replaces the paradigm of violence to one of integration, as well as increases the development of self-esteem and the ability to resolve conflicts peacefully and creatively.
El Modelo: Muéstranos a través de un ejemplo específico cómo tu solución hace una diferencia, incluye tus actividades primarias
Weekly, students and teachers of 4th, 6th and 8th grades, members of 10 schools in the municipal school network of Rio de Janeiro, are visited by a pair of professionals responsible for training students and teachers in techniques of school conflict resolution (RCE) All of them therefore have the opportunity to experience, through dynamic role-plays and discussions, the development of skills such as cooperation, communication, appreciation for diversity, positive expression of emotions and conflict resolution. And the students of the 8th grade, beyond this basic training, receive additional training specific to serve as "Peer Mediators", or as facilitators of dialogue between other students in their respective schools, acting as positive leadership examples. Since teachers are trained to apply this core curriculum in school subjects and support those students who choose to be Peer Mediators, they assist with the sustainability of the program at school.
El mercado: ¿Quiénes son tus pares y competidores? Identifica a otros que también estén trabajando para dar respuesta a las necesidades que tú abordas y en qué te diferencias de ellos. ¿Cuáles son los desafíos que estos jugadores podrían representar para tu éxito o crecimiento?
Because it works in the area of municipal schools education districts, the project works in partnership with the Education Secretariat of Rio de Janeiro and with the sponsorship of Petrobras, HSBC Solidariedade, Institute and the GE Foundation. However, the project’s differential consists of students working on skills related to self-esteem, empathy, recognizing feelings, tolerance in dealing with the differences etc. The success of the project depends, therefore, not only in the interests of its recipients, but mainly the participation and support of all actors that comprise the school community, which are: principals, teachers, educators, parents, and community in encouraging the new form of behavior.

Impacto social
Esta presentación se trata de
¿Cuál ha sido el impacto de la solución hasta la fecha?
Since the second half of 2011, the Educação para a Paz project was present in 10 schools in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, training over 1,300 students and teachers. All our work is guided by the goal of changing perceptions about conflict and how to deal with it, seeking the adoption of new forms of behavior, which requires time and specific forms of benchmarking. However, we recognize the impact of this work due to the acceptance and adoption of our curriculum by teachers, the students' interest, in the subtle behavioral changes, teachers reports, etc.
¿Cuál es tu impacto proyectado para los próximos 1-3 años?
The project currently covers 4th, 6th and 8th grades of the schools where it is present. Over the next year, the goal is to gradually serve the remaining grades of elementary school, so that at the end of two years, the whole school community (1st to 9th grade) have the opportunity to receive training in conflict resolution techniques for schools, which will facilitate the construction of a culture of peace in the school environment.

Currently, the movement of mediation as an alternative form of conflict resolution has gained traction. School mediation, specifically, plays an important role in the development of citizenship to prevent and alleviate tensions and violence, to stimulate community life, to conceive of discrimination, oppression and exclusion in all its manifestations. In other words, it contributes to the formation of subjects conscious, participative and supportive. In countries like France, USA, Argentina, Belgium and the Czech Republic, mediation in educational settings has shown very positive results, through the enrichment of relationships between students, school and community, the decrease in disciplinary problems and school violence, and in some of them, affect the level of public policy. The idea to import this social technology was therefore based on this context and international experience.
