Harvard scholars inquire how to apply mindfulness in education curriculum

On 19th of March, nine visitors from Harvard Graduate School Of Education and Harvard Kennedy School visited World Peace Initiative Foundation (WPI) headquarters in Thailand to learn more about Thai education system, global education trends and policy recommendations.

The group from Harvard were interested in how we apply mindfulness and soft skills to education curriculum. So, during the visit WPI team presented the Peace Revolution project explaining about the PIPO (peace in, peace out) concept, how the project started, how it grows and the online platform that it offers along with a community that shares the interest in self-development through mindfulness and meditation.

The guests also had an opportunity to try a short meditation led by the CEO and co-founder of WPI, Ping Ping Worakate. Moreover, they showed a positive interest in WPI meditation retreats and the self-development program.
