Eight days a week

News in Brief

There were over 750 peace actions listed for the third annual Campaign Nonviolence week of action, 18 – 25 September. Around 700 of those were in the USA, in every state (though 20 were aspects of the three-day ‘World Beyond War’ conference in Washington DC).

Also part of Campaign Nonviolence (CNV) this year was the ‘1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project’, which at the time of going to press listed 637 trainings in 2016. CNV had six possible categories of training, including ‘communicating nonviolently’ and ‘spiritually-based nonviolence’. Trainings could include ‘strategic movement building’, ‘peacebuilding and restorative justice’ and ‘anti-racism’.

CNV is a project of the US Christian peace group, Pace e Bene.
