Imagine a planet where
peace reigns

• governments resolve their differences with wisdom, not weapons.
  
  
• communities thrive as citizens willingly commit their time and energy to heartfelt volunteer service.
  
  
• strangers meet each other with compassion rather than distrust.
  
  
• family members interact with caring, respect and love.

As human beings, we have the ability to choose peace inside of ourselves, no matter what is going on around us. The peace we refer to is not passive, submissive or indifferent. Rather, it is a dynamic, active peace that enriches the quality of life within the individual, in society and in the world at large.

Our mission is to
identify and present the processes that lead to peace
