VASQUEZ-RUSSI, Catalina María. Lessons and Takeaways from the Lecture on Peace in Colombia. Educ. Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.2, pp.221-239.  Epub 06-Abr-2021. ISSN 0123-1294.  https://doi.org/10.5294/edu.2020.23.2.4.

The Lecture on Peace (Cátedra para la paz) is a compulsory subject for all educational institutions in Colombia whose aim is to develop citizen skills for democratic, peaceful, human rights-oriented coexistence. This article analyzes literature production on the Lecture on Peace from three categories: how peace is defined, what role is assigned to educational institutions in the training of peace-making citizens, and what the teaching approaches and methods are for the application of the principles and contents of the lecture. It concludes that such literature must delve into the study of students’ imaginary, possibilities, and characteristics to devise more accurate action plans on the training of peace-making citizens. Besides, a consensus was found on the role of schools as the parties responsible for citizen education, taking students’ participation as a starting point.
