Many children today live in unsafe places. They may live where wars have been fought or where there is a lot of crime.
Play for Peace is an organization formed to help children in unsafe places. It does so by bringing kids and adults together. For what? To make a more peaceful world.
Places where Play for Peace works include Northern Ireland, India, and Guatemala. Kids from different backgrounds come together to play games. Some of the games encourage them to work together and to learn about one another. While playing, kids begin to understand their different ways of thinking and doing things.
As kids in the program get older, Play for Peace teaches them to be leaders. They become advisers. The older kids lead the games for the younger kids. One leader called Mandeep from a small village in India described her experience，“I didn't realize there was a larger world until I joined Play for Peace... It was a big challenge for me. But I grew to feel safe and like them even though they were different from me”．
