PBI making space for peace

Peace Brigades International (PBI) is a non-governmental organization (NGO) which protects human rights and promotes nonviolent transformation of conflicts.When invited, they send teams of volunteers into areas of repression and conflict. The volunteers accompany human rights defenders, their organizations and others threatened by political violence. Perpetrators of human rights abuses usually do not want the world to witness their actions. The presence of volunteers backed by a support network helps to deter violence. PBI CREATES SPACE for local activists to work for social justice and human rights.

He Meriam en Harold!

Wat gaaf dat jullie dit werk gaan doen! Gaan jullie die tijd daar dan ook wonen? Of steeds op en neer? Ben benieuwd en ga zeker jullie website in de gaten houden!
Succes met jullie werk!

Groetjes,
