Overview
We are a civil society, non-profit organization working to promote peace, sustainable development, human rights and respect for the environment throughout the United States and the world through educational programs organized in partnership with the NGO Peace Boat, which carries out its main activities through a chartered passenger ship that travels the world on peace voyages. The ship creates a neutral, mobile space and enables people to engage across borders in dialogue and mutual cooperation at sea, and in the ports that we visit. These goals are pursued through peace education programs onboard the ship, including conferences, workshops, face to face encounters and field studies. Peace Boat US upholds the Hague Agenda for Peace and Justice for the 21st Century, including the promotion of the non-violent prevention and resolution of conflict among nations and peoples, and the development of a culture of peace. We use travel as a tool for positive social and political change. We create and implement best practices in what we call travel for peace and sustainability. Our partnerships with local organizations and travel agencies reflect our effort to promote tourism in a progressive and educational form so as to contribute to global sustainability and peace. Help us educate, raise awareness, and inspire action which will bring forth positive political and social change in the world for peace.
