Last week, FUM Programme Officer Getry Agizah (standing, at right) visited schools in western Kenya to launch the Quaker peace curriculum in some schools and encourage existing peace clubs in others. “This exercise was well received by heads of schools, and most going through [the curriculum] felt it is indeed a needed item for schools and students,” Getry said. “Some schools are planning peace gardens where it will be a meditation site for both teachers, students, and workers who have difficult days. So far we have gone round to nine schools—seven secondary schools and two primary schools. Out of the seven secondary schools, four were Quaker schools.”
