Using Stories
to Prevent Violence & Promote
Cooperation
A compilation of 10 stories from around the world,
each with accompanying activities, for use with both primary and
secondary students. The stories illustrate various themes associated
with violence prevention, including tolerating differences, taking
responsibility for one's actions, dealing with hurt and anger,
seeing the consequences of violence, building trust, and facing
problems before they escalate. The stories help young people to
understand that there are helpful and productive ways to solve
conflict, and give them the tools for peaceful action in their
own lives. An excellent resource for teachers or youth group facilitators.
