Activating Justice

Putting love on display in public is at the center of the work of The Waging Peace Project. It connects us to our power to disarm violence by showing up right where we live to build communities full of peace and absent of injustice.

 

How do we confront violence and injustice?

By putting Love on Display in Public. 

We Activate justice by practicing the Waging Peace Project ™ 3 Tools: 

1) Show up.

2) Make a commitment.

3) Plan to celebrate.

Activating justice is how we put love on display in public. Making our neighborhoods into places where every person has equal access to what they need to thrive, not just survive.

Waging Peace is a commitment to building the world we dream of– a world free of violence and poverty, a world where the last are first and the first are last, where the poor are blessed and Peacemakers not war makers are called the children of God.
