The report is presented in seven sections: (1) general observations on the Unesco recommendations; (2) problem-oriented approaches to peace education on preprimary, primary, and secondary levels; (3) comparison of teacher education in Unesco member countries and recommended ways to strengthen training programs in the direction of international understanding; (4) methods of promoting international understanding in higher education, such as interdisciplinary approaches, an international student body, and emphasis on peace research; (5) international educational experiences for adults and out-of-school youth, such as work camps, voluntary service activities, exchanges, community betterment projects, and art festivals; (6) equipment and materials to supplement traditional international relations textbooks; and (7) suggestions on national action and international cooperation. Appendices include a directory of conference participants and observers and the text of the 1974 Unesco peace education resolution. (Author/DB)
