Maria Montessori's contribution to Education and Peace.

During 1930 Dr Montessori became profoundly concerned with the question of peace. Her concern did not stem from political problems but rather the human problem, and so Montessori started a crusade in the name of education. She gave speeches all around the world and had the support of politicians and leaders. Montessori said that "preventing conflict is the work of politics; establishing peace is the work of education". Universities, organisations and associations in many countries proposed her as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1949 and 1950.
