Work on the cemetery

The work on the cemetery is an important part of our peace education. This way the cemetery is not only maintained as a memorial for future generations, but also offers the opportunity for young people to be confronted with the consequences of war and violence prompting the youth to think about questions of war and peace and paving the way for further projects (e.g. projects concerning prevention of violence).
The youth does work such as re-writing the letters on the crosses using typewriters and cleaning the crosses with a special soap suds. 
During your preparations remember to mention that the students should not wear their best clothes.

Time:   minimal 2 hour
It depends on the weather. 
In the weekends there is no work.
