About Dance 4 Peace:
Dance 4
Peace is an innovative global nonprofit that prevents violence and bullying,
and transforms conflict in schools and communities through dance and creative
movement. The curriculum promotes empathy, mediation skills, anger management,
and conflict transformation to instill social and emotional competencies for
peace. Through school and community center partnerships, Dance 4 Peace connects
communities in the United States in Baltimore, Newark, New York City and
Washington DC and internationally in Colombia, Germany, and the Philippines to
share intercultural stories of peace. Our vision is to ignite global social
change through the art of movement, and as such both our curriculum and
evaluation system are completely movement-based. To date, Dance 4 Peace has
worked with over 5,089 youth in nine cities on four continents.
