Working in Partnership
We believe that working in partnership with other peace and justice
focused organisations is an important way of strengthening a culture of
peace in society, sharing our expertise with other organisations and
learning from them.
We enjoy working in partnership with a range of organisations
spanning the fields of youth work, faith, peace and conflict transformation. We also take an
active part in networks such as the Peace Education Network which
brings together peace education practitioners and InterAction, a
network of student campaigning organisations. We are always keen
to hear from organisations interested in partnering with us – if that
is you, please get in touch.
Recent partnership work:
The Peace Zone at Greenbelt festival - Greenbelt is a Christian Arts
festival that takes place on Cheltenham racecourse during the Bank
Holiday weekend at the end of August. For over 10 years we have
been an active partner in the Network of Christian Peace Organisations
(NCPO) to coordinate the Peace Zone. The Peace Zone is an interactive
arts-based installation that engages young festival goers with issues
of peace and conflict in a dynamic and fun way. It is also a
great opportunity for young people to get involved with our work as
every year we train a team of 12 volunteers to run the Peace Zone and
build their own peacemaking skills in the process. If you would like to
find out more about volunteering for us at Greenbelt, please get in

Women Peacemakers Celebration - Leeds, Dec 2010
Women Peacemakers – in December 2010 we partnered with Catholic peacemaking organisation Pax Christi to host Women Peacemakers: A celebration of ordinary women’s extraordinary lives. This day conference in Leeds drew together women and men peace activists to use creative and arts based learning to engage with the theme of women as peacemakers – internationally, locally, historically and across generational boundaries. A specially commissioned play, Stone Tales was launched, to tell the stories of four very different women peacemakers.
Partner organisations include:
- Student Christian Movement
- SPEAK
- Peace Education Network (PEN)
- Peace Brigades International (PBI)
- STAR
- CAAT University Network
- Action Reconciliation Service for Peace
- Christian Aid
- Charities Parliament
