Abstract

In the education field of the present time in Latin America education for peace and human rights towards truth and justice is an ethic commitment, a social need and a non-questionable theme. Hence it is necessary to create links in between civil society and the non-governmental organizations building strong bridges of cooperation and work. It is also important to review traditional concepts, to evaluate the education practices and to design projects from our own life, social and working places. Departing from the conviction that the existing efforts for making changes are not antagonistic but complementary. This article intends to demonstrate that Education for Peace implies a permanent compromise with democratic principles in pedagogy and it is an ethic need to assume them in concrete actions and not only in theory.
