Our Peace Accelerators

Anyone with a desire for increased peace can be a peace accelerator! Our Peace Accelerators activities are set up for everyday people, not subject experts. Our peace accelerators learn essential peace skills, practice how to apply those skills to typical challenges, and plan action to increase peace in their relationships and communities.

Some of our peace accelerators give their time to lead accelerator activities with their peers. Learn more about how you can volunteer as a meets-up activity leader or peace skills activity leader.
