The Serbian education system severely deteriorated after a series of conflicts and NATO bombings dismantled the nation from the 1990's-2000. Although violence is not uncommon to schools around the world, researchers have demonstrated that the long term effects of war and violence on society creates "cycles of violence" in children which are difficult to break down. The research looked at the potential of physical education and sport in creating peace in a Serbian village school. A qualitative study, it used ethnographic techniques such as case study and several research instruments such as semi-structured interviews in addition to field note gathering, documentation, and daily journal writing. The data demonstrated that interview participants felt very positive about sport education and believed it did play a role in promoting peace. Programs such as UNICEF's School without Violence program is playing a significant role in schools by collaborating with the Serbian Ministry of Education to adopt new strategies that will continue to boost the quality of education in schools in Serbia and decrease violence.
