Peace Teachers

Perceptions of Vocation in Interreligious, Intercultural Schools in Israel and Palestine

"The purpose of this study was to better understand why three teachers, one Christian, one Jewish, and one Muslim chose to teach in interreligious, intercultural schools in Israel and Palestine. Research has been conducted on peace education, as well as research about vocational choice, but little research has been conducted concerning educators and why they have chosen to teach in an interreligious environment. Through a historical narrative methodology, the principal investigator explored the teachers' self-understandings of their chosen vocation. The analysis of these data may aid educators in increasing global awareness of, and support for, peace teachers"--Abstract.
