Understanding The HC’s Peace Model: Breakdown and Printable Poster
Why do we learn about genocide? To prevent it and to imagine a different, more peaceful world. This model helps us envision that reality.
The Peace Model, created by The HC’s education team, directly parallels the structure and inverts the elements of the Genocide Model to educate about genocide prevention. Together, these models represent two extreme ends of a spectrum that can describe the state of a society.
Download this breakdown of the Peace Model, including a printable poster of the model for your classroom.
