The purpose of the handbook is to:

Provide teachers with a selection of relevant and accessible in-classroom and out-of-classroom educational resources (summaries of short activities, lessons, units) that aim to instil the principles of the RoL among primary school students.
Assist teachers in applying the teaching resources to their local educational settings by providing ideas for adaptation for a variety of learning environments.

This handbook provides:

Summaries of existing teaching resources selected from UN agencies, INGOs, NGOs, and ministries that work to meet the learning outcomes on GCED for the RoL.
Links to the original resource that offers additional learning opportunities.
Tips and suggestions for adaptation, extension and cross-references of teaching resources; and Suggestions for learning assessment.

This handbook can be useful for:

Teachers and teacher trainers in formal school settings at the primary school level. It encourages teachers to strengthen the RoL through education by integrating it into their lessons and planning.
Professionals working in non-formal education or engaging with young people, for example, in sports associations, community organizations, social work and the justice sector.
Parents seeking to raise empowered young citizens who actively contribute to peace and justice.
