The educational system fulfills the peace education mission for society through the schools, which have the authority, the legitimacy, the means, and the conditions to carry it out. Schools are often the only institution that society can formally, intentionally, and extensively use to achieve this mission.

- 57. The Importance ofPeace Education “ Peace education provides hope for a better future for the younger members of society, because it indicates that their society is aware of its ills and is striving to remedy them in order to build a better place to live. Such hope is essential as it provides goals towards a better future and places it within their grasp; for without such goals, society is doomed to decline and decay.” Daniel Bar-Tal, 2002
