| So far we have reached 1,000 trainings towards our goal of 1000 Nonviolence Trainings! |
What is the 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project?
The 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project is a new and collaborative initiative to connect nonviolence trainings around the world and highlight the tens of thousands of people being trained in nonviolence in service to a more just and peaceful world. We invite you and your organization to join this historic venture!
It is our belief that nonviolence needs to become a more prominent part of mainstream thinking and needs to become as credible in the public’s mind as violence is now. By launching a program that identifies, connects and promotes nonviolence trainings around the world, we believe we can make all of our work more newsworthy, more credible and more attractive to those who have not considered themselves part of a larger nonviolent movement. This effort will also help people find and attend trainings in their area.
We invite you and your organization to:
- Add your name/organization to the 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project as a supporter by emailing us at nonviolencetraininghub@gmail.com. We’ll include your name on this page below with other long-time trainers and supporters.
- Post your trainings on the 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project website here. Be sure to promote your trainings as part of the 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project on your website and other publications.

The 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project will encompass a spectrum of trainings for nonviolent change, including nonviolent action, strategic movement building, peacebuilding and restorative justice, anti-racism, peaceful parenting, trauma healing, nonviolent communication (NVC), the spirituality and practice of nonviolence and more.
Transforming the massive global challenges we face today—including perennial war, racism, poverty, environmental destruction and all forms of violence and injustice—requires powerful movements for change. The 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project exists to support the preparation, organization and collaboration to build and sustain these movements.
We invite you and your organization to join the 1000 Nonviolence Trainings Project today. If you have any questions feel free to contact us at: nonviolencetraininghub@gmail.com
