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; |
