Objectives :

- To reflect on the children problems and difficulties in different parts of the world.
- To get closer to other children reality through their stories.
Valoración:
To facilitate different audios in which peace wishes are shared from different places of the Piarist presences. Transcripts are also provided in case the audios cannot be listened to.
Once the wishes are listened to or read, a world map divided into pieces will be delivered. They will have to assemble the world map with all the pieces.
The peace wishes are sticked in the place of the Piarist presence where they come from. When the world map is assembled and the wishes are placed on it, it will be turned around and the Calasanz figure will be discoverer on the back.
A dynamic is made for each group to express how Calasanz and his works in the 21st century drive each person of Calasanz Movement to build a world of peace. In order to do this, the alter agos/heroes will be used: this is a fun exercice in which small groups imagine how they could solve a specific problem if their team was led by St. Joseph Calasanz. In small groups we will ask them some questions so they can discuss and reflect about them:
Which peace wish would Calasanz ask for?
What would Calasanz do in (choose a place where there might be a conflict)?
What would Calasanz ask each of us to bring peace to our environment?
Which values can we strengthen to promote peace?
