friedliches Miteinander
In Zukunft werden wir mit Israel und Palästina zwei weitere Nationen zum friedlichen Miteinander begrüßen. ... Wir möchten zeigen, dass ein friedliches Miteinander für Kinder auch dann möglich ist, wenn sich die Erwachsenen bekriegen.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

: Since it as aimed at children, I find togetherness better too. If it had been adults, I would have gone for coexistence since the text "merely" talks about teaching tolerance and communication skills.

living together without animosity
However, somehow this is not a term I would repeatedly use for a bunch of kids just learning to get on with each other although they come from different ethnies which are traditionally enemies.
Would it be possible to use "peaceful coexistence" sparingly and the rest of the time my or another paraphrase?
"we help/teach/encourage children to live together without animosity."

Alison, your answer has only just popped up. So you and I were thinking along the same lines.

Jennifer is right - " living together without fighting"

Lancashireman
: Sounds the most natural of all so far. 'Peace' is a difficult concept for children to understand.

Well, the word"animosity" is not aimed at the children either - I would talk to them about "not fighting" as children do see conflicts as ""fights".

casper (X)
: "Living together without fighting", as suggested by you in your response to Andrew Swift above, looks very appropriate in the context.
