Is your school interested in working with us on storytelling about peace and moderation? Contact us.
Stories of Peace & Moderation is a collaborative project of the Raoul Wallenberg School in Bromma, Sweden, The Embassy of the United States in Stockholm and Stories for Society, a Stockholm-based non-profit which works with storytelling as a tool for learning and communication, www.storiesforsociety.com.
Four stories were produced by children and youth in classes 6-9 during two 3-hour workshops, in which they worked in groups to express their stories of what happens when a visitor comes to their imaginary islands, where they wish for peace to reign. The participants have been responsible for forming and expressing their stories themselves. Class 6 has told their story in Swedish language and the other classes have told their story in English language. All images and texts are created by the participants.
The workshops were undertaken in connection with a ceremony held at the American Ambassadors Residence on September 11, 2011 commemorating all victims of terrorism and extremist violence.
