The most important thing I’ve taken from my time in Seeds of Peace is that creating peace is not to stop violence between two neighbors, but to have security, trust and faith in each other.
- Mohamad, Palestinian Seed
When campers and Delegation Leaders leave Maine, they realize that their work as peacemakers is just beginning. Though they will surely face many challenges, including skepticism and hostility from friends and family, these Seeds bravely pledge to make the peace they saw at Camp become a reality at home.
Through local workshops, advanced dialogue sessions, community outreach efforts, community service projects, regional seminars, and global summits, Seeds of Peace provides a variety of opportunities for graduate participants to build on their transformational experience at Camp and to further their development as leaders and advocates for peace.
