The Consequences of War
HOMEWORK PREPARATION
Background for Teachers:
In the film The Day After Peace, Jeremy describes his quest to build a case for Peace Day, the courtroom being the General Assembly of the United Nations. Accordingly, Jeremy set out to visit areas of conflict, to meet with young people, women and men and hear about the ways in which war had affected their lives.

At the end of this lesson, students should be able to • Describe how war affects different parts of society (economy, health, emotional well-being, families, education, environment, etc.)
• Suggest reasons why wars happen • Give reasons regarding the need for non-violence in their communities • Complete the ‘Three Steps to Peace One Day’

complex and sensitive, we felt it necessary to provide a component that would encourage debate about these issues. It is important for students to explore the link between violence in their communities (the need for non- violence) and violent conflict between nations (the need for the non-violent resolution of war).
If your school is planning a wider programme of activities for Peace Day, then the questions on Resource G could become titles for a series of debates in school on 21 September.
Please help students to consider the Three Steps to Peace One Day
