Mission: End Violent Conflict. It’s our purpose- our call to action. Everyday, we see images of refugees fleeing from conflict in the Middle East. Of families torn apart by war. Of women abused by the men who were supposed to protect them. Of violence between people of different religions and political beliefs. Our solution? We transform the way people deal with conflict - building sustainable peace for generations to come. We work with all sides of a conflict, providing the tools they need to work together and find solutions. Our approaches include Community projects like street theater and sports games; Media including radio shows, comic books, and television shows; and Dialogue, such as leadership workshops, back channel diplomacy, and town hall meetings. Instead of tearing down an existing world, we focus on constructing a new one.
