MOOCs4Peace Center
The brainchild of a refugee learner, the InZone MOOCs4Peace Center is designed to help refugees acquire knowledge related to conflict resolution, which they can apply to their communities using applied drama approaches developed as part of the Center’s training program. A blended learning approach adopts human-centered methodology for non-formal higher education in emergencies. After taking MOOCs onsite at the Center, learners participate in a series of forums and workshops on interpersonal and intercultural conflict management, developing communication and negotiation skills to turn differences into opportunities. The Center’s long-term goal is to offer learning pathways that will allow students to complete each MOOC with academic credit from partnering universities.
