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.

4th June Visiting Pass Valley


Pass valley is a village 2 hours drive from Wamena in a neighbour valley. We spent the weekend in a former missionary house with a nice fireplace. Pass Valley is really peaceful and beautiful with a lot of wild orchids and other type of colourful flowers. We did some hiking into local villages and the surrounding mountains.
