The Catholic Institute for Nonviolence is a project of Pax Christi International’s Catholic Nonviolence Initiative.

Its mission is to make nonviolence research, resources and experience, more accessible to Catholic Church leaders, communities and institutions in order to deepen Catholic understanding of and commitment to the practice of Gospel nonviolence.

To achieve its mission and reach its goals the Catholic Institute for Nonviolence works mainly as a virtual institute but with a small presence in Rome.

The video below highlights the mission of the Catholic Institute for Nonviolence. Nonviolence is not only central to the Gospel but also a proven, transformative method for achieving peace, justice, and reconciliation. Watch as we uncover the different dimensions of nonviolence and how it can guide us towards a more just and compassionate world.
