The meeting of people from other cultures, the understanding of
each other, and maybe festivals, flashmobs can make people
be more understanding.

to let us practice our religion freely, so we should let them as well.

The other is reason is the money.

3. ) Eszter, 12.1991, Szent László Gimnázium, Budapest

2. Imagine, what are the main obstacles to peace in our world?
People do not listen to each other.

I had a Belgian exchange student and went to peace camp  peace camp was the most important. And I told about it almost everyone I know.

4. ) FRANCISKA , 1993.01.27, Szent László Gimnázium
1. Imagine, what can bring more peace to our world?
If people learned how to live peacefully together, tried to solve all their problems together, helped each other. If they learned how to make a world that’s safe and good for everyone.
2. Imagine, what are the main obstacles to peace in our world?
That people don’t want to make sacrifices for a better, safer world. They don’t want to sacrifice their own needs (better say the things that they think they need) for a world where everyone is equal, and where everyone can get their personal needs, without hurting the other.
3. Imagine, what have you done so far to promote peace in your own country?
I always try to be kind with everyone and help them. I try to solve our problems in a way that’s acceptable for everybody. I don’t think one person can change the world, but one can help another, and two can help two another, and so we can make a big peaceful community that we call world.
4. Imagine, what can you do in the future to promote peace in your own country?
I can try to help everyone who needs my help. I can talk with people who don’t understand that there really are people who really need our help to be in safe. I really do believe that together we can change the world.

5. ZSUZSANNA, 1992.04.01, Szent László Gimnázium

1. Imagine, what can bring more peace to our world?
I think if we knew more about the culture of other people or countires because then we wouldn’t believe in stereotypes. or if everybody knew one person from each country  but it’s almost impossible.
2. Imagine, what are the main obstacles to peace in our world?
I think it’s the family or the friends that surround us. Because if for example the father thinks that something or somebody is really bad and he always talks about how much he hates them (for example the jews) then the kid will think the same and will tell this to their friends and maybe their friends will think the same.
3. Imagine, what have you done so far to promote peace in your own country?
I tried to convince people not to believe everything that they hear from somebody and not to say bad thing about people that they don’t know. So “not to judge a book by it’s appearance”
4. Imagine, what can you do in the future to promote peace in your own country?
I still think that I am or we are not enough to change the world but if it was an obligation to participate in a camp like this for a lot of people then maybe we would be the majority and we could change the minds of the people about stereotypes and we could bring peace.
