About the Brighton Peace and Environment Centre
Mission Statement:
The Brighton Peace and Environment Centre aims to raise awareness and understanding of social justice, peace, sustainable development and environmental protection matters by providing information, education and positive
practical solutions to global problems.
-
As a
Development Education Centre
, we are primarily an
information resource service
with a focus on peace and environmental issues. Development
education aims to raise awareness and understanding of how global
issues affect the everyday lives of individuals, communities and
societies and how all of us can and do influence the global.
-
We work with community groups, schools, local businesses and the public.
-
We run
courses for teachers
about how to integrate global citizenship into the curriculum.
-
We have a
comprehensive library
with
over 2000
books
and
teaching packs
. This collection is supplemented by
artefacts
from Asia and Africa that teachers can use as visual aids in their lessons.
-
We educate children about sustainable development and the global dimension of their lifes
-
We provide a wide selection of
information
on local, national and international campaigns, projects and organisations.
-
We organise regular
open days, discussion evenings
and
workshops
as part of our outreach programme.
We are a membership based organisation and rely on volunteers to do many of the daily tasks like opening the Centre, creating our newsletter and co-ordinating events.
Without the financial support of our members and the work of volunteers, BPEC could not function.
