A THRE approach centers on creating social change and encourages youth to analyze structures and conditions that lead to injustice. It embraces emancipatory learning strategies and promotes social change through both individual actions to address human rights violations, as well as through collective action to work toward wider community development. In this article, the author examines the strengthsand limitations of how the curriculum’s content, structure, and context align with a THRE approach. The analysis includes takeaways for the wider field about developing quality human rights programming centered on community-engaged praxis, youth participation, transformative agency, and empowerment.  \nKeywords: Peace Education, Human Rights Education, Social Justice, Youth Participation, Transformative Learning.  \nIntroduction  \nThe world continues to face the highest number of violent conflicts since the Second World War (United Nations, 2023) . Currently two billion people, or nearly a quarter of the world’s population, live in a country affected by such conflict (United Nations, 2023) . Now, more than ever, it is important to promote the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will help people prevent the occurrence of conflict, resolve conflicts peacefully, or create social conditions conducive to peace, including those that further human rights. Education is an essential path to this goal.  \nWhile multiple definitions of Human Rights Education (HRE) exist, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) defines HRE as “education, training, and information aiming at building a universal culture of human rights through the sharing of knowledge, imparting of skills and molding of attitudes”(Tibbitts & Fernekes, 2011, p. 1) . HRE scholar Felisa Tibbitts (2017) distinguishes the Transformative models of HREfrom two other HRE models outlined below, emphasizing their distinct inclusion of critical pedagogy and deep reflection on the societal structures and conditions that lead to injustice (Tibbitts, 2017) . Transformative Human Rights Education (THRE) also centers on the goal of creating social change (Tibbitts, 2017) . HRE models that adopt a transformative approach embrace emancipatory learning strategies that include  \n© 2024, Hough. CC BY 4.0  .

This article highlights onespecific peace and human rights curriculum, the PeaceJam Foundation Ambassadors Curriculum, analyzing how its content and structure align with a THRE approach.  \nThe PeaceJam Foundation is a youth development nonprofit organization led by 14 Nobel Peace Prize Laureates. PeaceJam’s stated goals are to “create the next generation of Nobel Peace Laureates,” by fostering youth-led solutions for today’s global issues and by creating opportunities for youth-led action (PeaceJam, 2019) . The curricular approach introduces young people to issues of peace, social justice, and nonviolence, and focuses on three main tenets: Inspiration, Education, and Action (PeaceJam, 2019) . The Ambassadors Curriculum, which is designed with and for geographically diverse youth ages 14-25, develops core competencies including personal power and purpose; diversity and inclusion; change agency; global citizenship and interconnection; peacebuilding; and compassionate leadership (PeaceJam, 2021) .  \nThe curriculum consists of seven learning modules that guide youth through the process of completing an action project based on topics they identify in","cbCaiszW4P0ul9gg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiszW4P0ul9gg","pdf",235849,14,"English","# Introduction\n## Human Rights Education and Transformative Models\n# PeaceJam Foundation and the Ambassadors Curriculum\n## Goals and Tenets\n## Learning Modules and Action Projects\n# Alignment with THRE and Key Takeaways","[{\"question\":\"What does the THRE approach emphasize in human rights education?\",\"answer\":\"THRE emphasizes creating social change through critical pedagogy and deep reflection on the structures and conditions that lead to injustice.
