AFSC works with communities worldwide to build conditions for lasting peace. We conduct research grounded in the wisdom, knowledge, and experiences of those most harmed by injustice.
We support communities in working on some of the most urgent issues of our time. We use an intersectional approach to build peace and transform systems of oppression. Read some of our recent findings in our work to support peacebuilding and advocacy around the world.
