The Peacecamp Project: 

A BRIEF OVERVIEW

The concept of a "camp" is the convergence of a definite set of individuals with basic points of commonality and diversity, who stay together in a definite territory to undertake a focused collective activity where they would synergize their respective experiences and ideas, thus mutually enriching one another through a definite set of  practical activities, lectures and discussions.  

A peace camp is one such convergence over a definite stretch of time and area of locality where the focused theme or topic is peace advocacy and/or peace education.

The Peacecamp-Masbate project is the planned gathering of over a hundred people, mostly senior students of a public high school (the Temestocles A. Merioles Sr. Memorial High School) in Armenia town near Masbate City, capital of Masbate province. 

It will span three successive days (27th to 29th, inclusive) during the last week of October 2010 in their own campus, with varied activities pre-programmed to help them learn and share, in a creative way, about the matter of peace-building within themselves, within their families and friendship circles, and within their respective and combined local communities, taking into account their attainment of harmony with the natural environment. 

It was conceptualized and organized by a Peacecamp core team of artistic peace educators and advocates, led by a Masbateña healer who channels Divine cosmic energy .
