Peace Iowa is a grassroots organization supported by many individuals and local groups in easrern Iowa.
Our visions are to:
- Connect eastern Iowans to people affected by violent conflicts around the world, in order to hear first-hand their experiences, perspectives, and needs.
- Make visible the way of peace. Increase awareness of the presence of peace-minded individuals and groups in eastern Iowa, and support their endeavors.
- Facilitate community, common purpose, and cooperative action among diverse peace-oriented groups. Draw from the peace traditions of many faiths and from secular movements promoting peace.
- Inspire and educate future generations of peacemakers.
- Foster communication between eastern Iowans and ordinary people in nations and groups labeled our "enemies."
- Serve as a resource for individuals who want to learn about historical peace traditions and movements.
- Educate ourselves and others about the links between war and political, social, and economic practices.
- Provide resources to help eastern Iowans make personal choices that decrease the likelihood of war and promote international peace.
