Peace Carnival

With 400 million children across the world (1-in-5) living in zones of violent conflict and/ or war there is an urgent need to build our children's understanding of and commitment to peace. As a reminder of the world that we are creating for India’s children and an exploration of the power of peace and love Teach For India brings to you - The Peace Carnival. 

Through a weekend of immersive experiences at Mumbai’s unique Museum of Solutions children and educators will come together to engage with the idea of peace make space for dialogue and conversations around conflict and peace and create art that reflects their growing understanding of conflict and their role in building a more peaceful world. 

From intensive workshops on filmmaking and songwriting for peace to live conversations with children in active conflict zones participatory art installations and open spaces for storytelling and dialogue; the Peace Carnival hopes to spark curiosity conversation and a desire for change in our children. The weekend will culminate in a screening of the ‘Conference of the Birds’ film which tells the increasingly relevant story of a group of children in search of the true meaning of India and questions - how can we build a more peaceful India filled with love?
