As a field of study, the EP is based on concepts such as: direct violence and structural violence, development, democracy, citizenship, environment among others, demonstrating its broad, plural and complex character, facing a world of injustice, inequality and economic exploitation. In the Brazilian and Latin American context, Paulo Freire (1985) declared that peace can only be achieved by overcoming perverse social realities and social justice. Therefore, peace and human its purpose the sense of peace as a full human achievement. With these beacons, the proposal of the Center for Studies and Training of Teachers in Education for Peace and Coexistence of the State University of Ponta Grossa, Paraná (NEP/UEPG), was created. It works in the training of professionals considering five axes: human values, human rights, conflict, eco-formation and significant living / living together. This article points out the actions of the NEP / UEPG, discussing its transdisciplinary proposal, which points to both the scientific construction and everyday pedagogical practices.
