Help Nonviolent Peaceforce

Nonviolent Peaceforce

Minneapolis, Minnesota

Cause Description:
The mission of the Nonviolent Peaceforce is to build a trained, international civilian nonviolent peace force. The Peaceforce will be sent to conflict areas to prevent death and destruction and protect human rights, thus creating the space for local groups to struggle nonviolently, enter into dialogue, and seek peaceful resolution. The Nonviolent Peaceforce is composed of Member Organizations from throughout the world. Together, at the International Convening Event, these organizations elected a Governing Council to oversee the mission and direction of the Peaceforce. The Nonviolent Peaceforce is also supported by hundreds of individuals and organizations. Nobel Laureates, peace activists, communities of faith and many others around the world have endorsed our goals and projects. Country groups work within their nation to enlist support and spread the word about the Peaceforce's activities. Regional offices support our staff. Local Chapters also work locally on behalf of the Nonviolent Peaceforce.
