Abstract: Cameroon, situated in the central region of Africa, has emerged as a crucial player in fostering Afro-African cooperation, particularly in the realm of peace education. This paper discusses the multifaceted role that Cameroon plays in regional peace-building initiatives, focusing on its educational policies aimed at promoting a culture of peace. Exploring key programs and frameworks adopted by the Cameroonian government and various organizations, the analysis highlights the impact of these efforts on conflict resolution and social cohesion within Cameroon and across the African continent. By integrating peace education theory and African indigenous knowledge systems, this research aims to illuminate the intricate dynamics of peace education in fostering collaboration and resolving conflicts across the continent. Employing a qualitative research design enriched by diverse data collection methods will enable a comprehensive analysis of peace education initiatives and their impact on communal ties and regional solidarity. By fostering collaborative learning and sharing best practices, Cameroon contributes to a broader regional strategy to mitigate conflicts and enhance sustainable development through education. This comprehensive exploration underscores the significance of Cameroon’s leadership in peace education as a vital element of Afro-African cooperation and regional stability.
