We know you want a more peaceful world.
We want to help you make it happen.
Be part of a positive, powerful vision for cultural change.

At a time of great challenge and opportunity around the planet, it’s time for a peacebuilding constituency to build political will that will help take our communities, nation and world to a new level of peace. We are committed to nourishing, expanding, and empowering that constituency.

Have you raised your voice for peace, but yearned to be part of a more unified, powerful chorus?

• Organize a Peace Alliance or Student Peace Alliance Action Team in your community.
• Make a difference.
• Find deep fulfillment and connection with others.
• Peace Alliance Action Teams take various forms – they may meet together every month for a powerful national conference call, take our monthly action together, and work with Members of Congress and the media to create new champions for peace.

Help build a world where:

• Communities are safe, loving and nurturing for all our kids.
• We invest in programs that prevent conflict, before it erupts into violence.
• We smartly intervene when crime or violence does occur, looking to restorative & rehabilitative models.
• Millions of peacebuilders are at work in conflict hotspots around the world.
• We empower ourselves and our families with the interpersonal skills to live a more peaceful life.
• Our policies and laws match our peaceful values.

Join us and be the change you want to see in the world.

How we do it:

Never done anything like this before? We are eager to train and support you in developing peacebuilding advocacy skills. We will gladly share our expertise in the following areas:

• Congress: Use your voice as constituents to educate and inspire your elected officials to champion policies that support the work of peacebuilding.
• Media: Learn to have Letters to the Editor, Op-Eds, and Editorials published in your papers, get on Talk Radio, and more.
• Powerful spokesperson:  Learn the language of peacebuilding and how to be an effective advocate.
• Build strong coalitions: Learn to build strong alliances in your community with key stakeholders, practitioners and community leaders in order to manifest a new peace constituency.
• Build strong teams: Learn to create action plans that will move the levers of power.
• Have fun and Be the Peace! This activism is positive, empowering, proactive and solution based. We strive to embody the values of the policies and worldview for which we advocate.
