Culture of Peace

These three fields are not an exhaustive list of the ways in which projects can be active. If you see projects or are interested in working on aspects of life that do not fit within these fields, don’t hesitate to do so. This is just a list to help you categorize different possibilities.

Also, don’t think that the ultimate goal of a project needs to lie in growing to the national or international level. There are a multitude of valuable and effective projects that have always kept working in their home community.
