Peace Education Programme (PEP) Evaluation Summary, Kenya

The purpose of the 2001 evaluation of the UNHCR Peace Education programme (PEP) was to determine if the programme had had any positive impact on peace building and conflict prevention during the four years of its existence in the Dadaab and Kakuma refugee camps. (From 1998 to 2001.) The second issue was whether refugees had learned peace-building skills. This is a short version of the full Evaluation Report (Mar 2002) on the UNHCR Peace Education Programme. The original version is 169 pages with several appendices over a further 40 pages, breaking down data, listing interviewees, and providing definition codes for the interview response categories; 26 tables, 17 figures; there are also extensive quotes and testimonies of the refugees. Educators will find full descriptions of PEP classroom scenes and processes and the same for PEP workshops.
