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.

May 24th 2009 Filmscreening with Gladi Rohani


The filmscreening was carried out by Gladi Rohani a local religious organisation that works with children in the age of 12-19 years. PBI worked together with Gladi Rohani to prepare and carry out the event. We watched the whalerider together were issues arise like culture and gender and afterwards we opened a dicussion and we did a role play about certain comparable issues in Papua and we played some games. It was a great event were everybody involved was really excited.
