Abstract

In the context of the global life, there have been shifts of the role and aims of education. Education is not confined to building a solid nationalism but also to build transnationalism in a peaceful life within the universal ethics. It must grow ranging from individual to structural life, and is eventually manifested in the diversity and meaningfulness of gratitude to the Almighty God. The described culture of life reflects a quality human life and education is the process of facilitating people to become peaceful individuals. It means that quality human life as described would have to be a dimension of goals of education that must be achieved by individuals in accordance with their potential in their lifelong development. Peace is not only perceived as the absence of war, conflict, riots, violence, and conflict resolution, but also as mindset of peace and life skills for sustainable peace. Peaceful school culture should be created to learners’ mindset of peace and peaceful life. This paper presents a philosophical view of peace and intervention strategies to develop the learners’ mindset of peace in school setting.
