Annual Peace & Reconciliation Study Tour for Educators
Toronto
ALPHA successfully hosts annual Peace & Reconciliation
Study Tours, bringing educators from Ontario, BC,
Alberta and Australia to China, Korea and other parts of
Asia. During the Study Tour, educators meet with
survivors, historians and other experts to gain
first-hand experience and knowledge about WWII in Asia.
Educators have since brought ALPHA’s educational
materials into their classrooms and produced
audio/visual materials to share with other teachers,
written papers, published articles and made
presentations about ALPHA’s work.
