DAY OF NON-VIOLENCE AND PEACE
As part of our Equality and Coexistence Plan, the Torrent Adult Education School organizes a series of events to commemorate the School Day of Non-Violence and Peace — a moment to reflect, share, and act from a place of respect, solidarity, and social commitment.
With the goal of promoting a culture of peace, coexistence, and non-violent conflict resolution, the program includes activities such as lectures, workshops, poster exhibitions, poetry readings, songs, video screenings, manifestos, and statements against war and all forms of violence.
These initiatives aim to foster essential values for a fairer, more empathetic, and united society, involving the entire educational community in a collective reflection that connects education with social transformation.
ACTIVITIES
Our center has commemorated the Day of Peace with a variety of activities full of emotion and reflection. First Cycle students at FPA recited poems, read manifestos, and sang “I Rebel” by Rozalén. Students from GES 1 V and NIGHT classes created a video, read manifestos, and made a mural titled “PEACE IS IN OUR HANDS” with anti-war messages in different languages.We also enjoyed a talk by Amadeu Sanchis about peace through literature, cinema, and music, and listened to songs by Bob Dylan, Víctor Jara, U2, and others. Students from the Spanish for Foreigners group wrote poems and manifestos against war, with particularly moving voices from people who have been exiled due to conflict.To close the event, we held a conference about the conflict in Syria and Kurdistan, highlighting the resistance of women and the fight for freedom. It was a deeply enriching experience that reminds us peace is something we must build every day!
