Peace Works Zimbabwe (Friends of Hlekweni)
Anne Watson
Friends of Hlekweni, the Milton Keynes Quaker charity that Oxford has supported for years, has closed most of its activities but continues to fund Peace Works Zimbabwe:
Alternatives to Violence Zimbabwe (AVPZ) runs community- and school-focused training in conflict resolution.
Peace Clubs in Schools supplies a core Peace Education textbook to each school and free-of-charge AVP training to teachers who, in turn, train volunteer students in conflict resolution and non-violent communication.
Corporal punishment in schools has recently been banned so these projects are now vital to replace it with peacefully-ordered communities. Learn more at: www.peaceworkszimbabwe.net.
