popular education and action centre (PEACE) |
| |
Popular Education And Action Centre (PEACE), is a small group of committed and experienced people, working towards strengthening the social action at the grass-roots. |
| |
PEACE began as statement against appropriation and co-option of Participatory philosophy into the domination paradigm of development and anticipatory or voluntary surrender of its early protagonists. |
| |
Our objective is to reinforce faith in philosophy of Participation that provides critical thrust to the issue of people's control over processes and structures affecting their lives as against treating Participation as mere technique to elicit involvement for vindication of few programmes and schemes. |
| |
Popular Education for us implies enabling the deprived, marginalised and oppressed in a manner that they can effectively intervene to transform the processes and structures influencing their lives, to their advantage. |

|
To motivate, orient and support youth from minorities and other marginalised communities to join the efforts of social development and transformation; |
