Abstract The purpose of the essay was to investigate how you can work with conflict management through drama, to promote the meeting with children from many different cultures. I also wanted to see how the work may be different in a heterogeneous or homogeneous group of children. In the background I lift up what a conflict can be, what kind of conflict management methods there are, how to work with drama education as well as what ethnic conflicts can be. The literature studies have shown that there are different types of conflicts and that the conflict management methods are many. In an attempt to get answers to my questions I’ve had drama lessons focusing on conflicts in a heterogeneous and homogeneous group of children in grades 3. My study has shown that conflict management through drama can increase the understanding of other cultures and promote the meeting between children. Just as the literature describes conflicts, they can be difficult to solve and it is important to find a method that suits the class you work with. Key- words: conflict, conflict management, drama, homogeneous, heterogeneous.
