ABOUT US
PeaceNow is actively developing innovative and practical solutions with the goal to create peace within a generation. We are not affiliated with any religion, political organization, or ideology. Our vision is one of unity and practical solutions for creating peace. The PeaceNow Three Pillars of Peace address the changes needed within our selves, our economies and our governments to facilitate a sustained era of peace.
Peace Departments. Our “One Billion Signatures for Peace” petition (The Global Resolution) will create the worldwide support needed for all governments to finally establish permanent infrastructures for building sustained peace. The Global Resolution, these signatures will help enact, has been approved by Culture of Peace working groups at the United Nations.
Peace Education. Our online Peace Practitioner Course will offer lessons in three critical areas for cultivating peace within our hearts, homes and communities. Our curriculum is strategically divided into Inner Peace, Family Peace and Community Peace, with each component providing instruction from the world’s best teachers on how to think and act peacefully and then apply these ideas to life. The program will allow those who are passionate about peace to sponsor people from around the world to become Peace Practitioners, enabling seeds of peace to be planted anywhere on earth, even in the most conflict-ridden areas of our globe.
Peace Economies. To establish sustainable peace in our world, a new peace-based economy must be created that provides jobs and profits that replace the money previously generated by conflict. With this in mind, our Peace Business Certifications will recognize businesses that align their operations and strategies with universally respected principals that promote global peace. This will allow the world’s citizens to invest in peace with each purchase they make, while supporting a new peace economy.
In an effort to promote understanding of how to turn peace into a global economic engine, PeaceNow will host an annual symposium for corporate executives, entrepreneurs, thought leaders, change makers, and economists to discuss strategies for creating this new economy. The symposium is entitled, “Peace As An Economic Engine”, and it will establish a new definition of success that includes community, humanity, the environment and global peace as part of the mission of corporations around world.
For these initiatives and the ONE BILLION-person petition drive that supports them, PeaceNow is recognized by UNESCO – the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization – “as a contributing organization to world peace and supports its mission.”
