There is one thing I noticed after completing a series of workshops on the topic of sexual harassment with University students – everyone just wants more! More time to discuss, more time to share, to think, more time to challenge beliefs, more time to spend together and juggle with some obvious and not-so-obvious topics and unclear lines.

1 BILLION CHILDREN worldwide experience physical, sexual or emotional violence. (1) We need to put an end to violence in the world and teach young people, our future leaders, how to resolve conflicts peacefully.
Most people are willing to talk about what external violence does to us or the world. We are all horrified to hear about another war, about another sexual abuse, about another incident of bullying. When is the world finally going to change, to evolve into something better and more peaceful? Very few talk about internal violence.
The Non-Violence Project Foundation inspires, motivates, and empowers young people by equipping them with the skills to cultivate awareness and understanding of non-violence. Our programs help individuals overcome violence and solve conflicts peacefully, promoting a world where creativity and peaceful communication thrive. We believe that knowledge is power, and through skill-based learning and engaging educational tools, we unlock the potential for positive change in the world.
Since our founding in 1993 in Switzerland, we have educated over 10 million people across five continents. Our education programs and outreach initiatives have earned numerous accolades for best practices. In 2011, President Obama awarded NVPF the President’s Call to Service Award. Other honors include the Presidential Daily Light Award, presented to President Bill Clinton, the Paul Harris Fellow Award from Rotary International, the American National Safety Council Award for best practice, and the Weed & Seed Award from the U.S. Department of Justice in 2009.
Our iconic symbol, the Knotted Gun, was created by renowned Swedish artist Carl Fredrik Reuterswärd in 1980. The sculpture, depicting a revolver with its barrel tied in a knot, was a response to the tragic assassination of John Lennon. Reuterswärd's intent was to symbolize the futility of violence and the power of peace. The Knotted Gun has since become a global symbol for the Non-Violence Project, representing our commitment to educating the world on peaceful conflict resolution.
With our 30-year legacy, innovative methods, and a growing community of change advocates like you, we are actively shaping a more peaceful and non-violent world.
As a non-profit based in Switzerland, we operate globally, welcoming individuals from all corners of the world to join us in our mission.
