Nonviolence Education and Training – NVET

Nonviolence training provides Civil Society Organizations with essential peacebuilding skills and concepts. These skills and concepts focus on ways to increase social mobilization and countervailing power. Nonviolence training aims to empower marginalized groups so that they can assert their rights, create their own opportunities, and access resources.

WPP will supports nonviolence trainings during 2008, by providing financial support (seedfunding), links to trainers and resource people, and/or training materials.
For the list of criteria and application form, please see below.

Please note that the 2008 call for applications has closed. Once the 2009 call for applications opens, it will be announced on this website.
