Racial Justice
At The Peacemakers Network (TPN), we are dedicated to advancing racial justice through a comprehensive approach that includes education, community engagement, and advocacy:
Educational Initiatives: We organize workshops, book clubs, and film screenings to deepen understanding of systemic racism and its historical roots.
Community Engagement: Our restorative justice practices and peacemaking circles foster healing and solidarity within communities.
Advocacy: We promote equitable policies at local and national levels, aiming to dismantle systemic barriers to equality.
Guided by a collective liberation framework, we believe that true freedom is achieved when all individuals are free from oppression.
Working Toward Collective Liberation
At The Peacemakers Network, we are committed to advancing human rights, justice, and peace—especially for communities affected by war, colonialism, displacement, and racism. Our mission is rooted in the belief that true peace is impossible without justice, and that collective liberation is the only path forward.
We guide our work through the AIM model:
A. Awakening
We awaken people to the injustices around them—militarized violence, forced displacement, systemic racism, and the long legacies of colonial rule. Through education and storytelling, we shine light on the root causes of suffering and the systems that maintain inequality.
I. Inspiring
We inspire action by connecting people to the stories, struggles, and movements that demand change. Through creative expression, dialogue, and truth-telling, we cultivate hope and a shared vision of justice that transcends borders.
M. Mobilizing
We mobilize communities by providing the tools, resources, and collective spaces needed to organize and act. Whether it’s policy advocacy, grassroots campaigns, or mutual aid, we work together to build power from the ground up.
Our Core Strategies:
Human Rights Advocacy – Uplifting the dignity and rights of people living under occupation, in exile, or at the margins of systems designed to exclude them.
Peacebuilding – Supporting nonviolent movements, community resilience, and justice-based reconciliation in places marked by conflict and historical trauma.
Education for Liberation – Hosting public workshops, book circles, and film screenings that challenge dominant narratives and open space for critical reflection and action.
Children’s Rights and Protection – Working to ensure that all children—especially those impacted by conflict—have consistent access to food, shelter, education, and emotional safety.
Solidarity and Movement Building – Connecting struggles across borders and backgrounds, grounded in the truth that liberation is collective and indivisible.
Through awakening, inspiring, and mobilizing, The Peacemakers Network is building a global community rooted in empathy, justice, and the shared work of peace.
