Synopsis

This book represents a humble attempt to address the existential challenge through a global education overhaul. The Authors contend that the key to achieving sustainable global peace and harmony lies in the cultivation of a fresh generation of individuals who are not only peaceable and content but also possess vital attributes such as critical and imaginative thinking abilities, unwavering respect for diversity, an innate capacity for empathy, and a strong sense of global identity and responsibility. They firmly believe that schools serve as the perfect initial platform for moulding the citizens of tomorrow. The central aim of this endeavour is to present a well-founded academic framework for global peace and harmony education.
