Developing Leaders

To create long-lasting positive changes in our regions, we must rely on members of those communities to pioneer and guide the changes. Change must come from within.

Play for Peace is a process of developing leaders — local leaders who have a vested interest in positive change, and who can most effectively advocate for those changes within their communities.

Because the focus of Play for Peace is on creating more positive paths of social development for children and youth, we emphasize the need for teen leaders within these communities. Local youth, with the guidance and involvement of local adults, can easily win the respect of those children we need to reach and help.

We bring change through cooperative play.
