Abstract

The objective of this work was to investigate the imaginaries of Paz, which have two families each made up of a mother and two children in each home, in the city of Bogotá, Therefore, the theory of imaginaries proposed by Castoriadis is retaken, emphasizing the instituted and instituting imaginaries and the use of the social history in the construction of social imaginaries. For the development of the research, a qualitative methodology was adopted, with a phenomenological study approach, which was carried out through the analysis of narratives and iconographies drawn by the participating subjects. In this research, three instruments were designed that allowed evaluating the imaginary of Peace according to their knowledge and desires regarding the subject, the experiences lived around situations of Peace and an interview that allowed to give an account of how to educate for Peace and how they can be these social actors who promote conflict resolution and good treatment of others, in order to promote appropriate strategies and tools to contribute to a culture of Peace from within families. Considering the information collected, it was considered necessary to carry out the construction of the “immerse yourself in peace” booklet for families, this being a tool that allows families, boys and girls to acquire knowledge regarding issues that contribute to the construction of a culture of peace, with theoretical details, practical and reflective activities.
