Pathway to Peace is a peace-building initiative involving 237 primary and post-primary schools from Drumsurn outside Limavady to Rosslea in County Fermanagh.

In addition to writing 25 word peace pledges, pupils at every participating school are in the process of pledging peace for their country by signing their names on a massive roll of material, kindly donated by Hunter Apparel Solutions Springtown.
