The experts of the PeaECH project Olena Akilina and Alla Panchenko summarized and critically analyzed the experience of the Baltic countries in the field of peacekeeping education, outlined the best peacekeeping practices and peacekeeping trends in the light of modern Ukrainian realities. The researchers came to the conclusion that when implementing education for peace in Ukraine, the need to solve the following problems should be taken into account: recognition and respect for multiculturalism, involvement of local communities in educational policy; reconciliation, struggle against injustice and the consequences of conflicts.
A significant part of the information base of the research was formed during the scientific internship of the project experts at the universities of Latvia and Estonia. Scientists have singled out specific features in the education of the Baltic countries aimed at the implementation of effective practices in the field of peacekeeping, in particular: an emphasis on transformational competences and socio-emotional skills in the formation of educational programs; paying attention to the metacognitive capabilities of education seekers; implementation of effective interactive forms of training for education seekers; development of training in peacekeeping skills at various educational levels; development of non-formal peace education.
