Mission Statement
The Educators Institute for Human Rights (EIHR) creates partnerships among educators around the world to teach the history of conflict and prevention strategies to build sustainable peace.
About This Cause
Taking lessons from the Holocaust, the Rwandan genocide against the Tutsis, the Killing Fields of Cambodia and other historic violations of human rights, EIHR partners with teachers to teach high and middle school students how egregious conflicts evolve, how justice is served and, most importantly, how we can prevent future conflicts through education and understanding. Real and lasting peace demands years — even generations — to take hold. As educators, we play a key role in that evolution by shaping the thinking and character of new generations raised without hate. Teacher by teacher, student by student, EIHR works with local partners to provide training and materials customized to local contexts, convenes workshops and summits, and builds strong networks of educators. We help them teach with confidence about hatred and conflict to become a global force for lasting peace.
