Our Mission

Science for Peace, a registered charity (893240861 RR 0001) since 1983, engages in research and education intended to inform the public and governments about peaceful solutions to conflict and injustice. We believe that everyone - the general public, workers, scientists, educators and students - can understand and contribute to a world based on peaceful, sustainable solutions to conflicts. Our work is based on the notion that our fragile planet requires fundamental changes to the way all peoples live and interact, if humans and all life on our planet are to survive.

About Science for Peace (SfP)

The day-to-day activities of Science for Peace occur through members' participation in Working Groups. These grassroots activities range from research, compiling reports, and generating educational materials to interacting with communities, governmental agencies, and elected officials. Furthermore, SfP is engaged in a number of new and continuing projects: the 'Global Issues Project' studies current threats to global stability arising from the rapid consumption of key resources and considers strategies for managing the anticipated shortages; and 'Freedom for Research' project studies the influence of businesses, governments and the military on the mission and conduct of the University. Science for Peace also holds regular forums and workshops on a variety of topics for public education and debate.
