Never Again International – Canada youth are working to ensure that children are never again manipulated by adults to become agents of war and can instead become soldiers for peace.

 

Every summer, Never Again International – Canada hosts a youth peacebuilding camp that engages war-affected and vulnerable youth around the themes of stopping the use of child soldiers and preventing the spread of genocide ideology and provides a safe environment for war-affected children who are committed to advocating for sustainable peace.  This year, a shortage in funding means that the children are facing the very real reality of not having this available.  Would you consider supporting the children this summer as they hope to advocate against the use of child soldiers and raise their voices for peace to ensure that genocide is never again permitted to happen?

Never Again International – Canada is educating the next generation of humanitarians to become peace builders.  Youth are educating their peers how the use of child soldiers is an early warning signal of mass atrocities.

Youth in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo are eager to participate in Never Again International – Canada‘s summer peace camp.

 The prevention of genocide starts on the benches of schools…Education can help prevent hate speech and undermine prejudice, by weakening the grounds for ignorance, by promoting learning to live together, by cultivating respect for all people …In a world where the ‘local’ is but one click away from the ‘global, we need a renewed commitment to dialogue, tolerance, reconciliation and understanding – online and offline. ~ Irina Bokova, UNESCO Director General Education as a Strategy to Prevent Genocide
