Introducing Austria’s First Peace Atlas: A Pathway to Peace


Austria has taken a significant step forward in promoting peace with the launch of its first-ever Peace Atlas (Friedensatlas Österreich), a groundbreaking civil society project. This evolving initiative serves as a beacon for those seeking practical examples of nonviolent resistance, successful peace projects, and essential information on organizations dedicated to peace, human rights, environmental protection, women’s rights, and social justice.

The Peace Atlas is more than just a directory; it’s a collection of “Best Practices of Peace”. It maps out inspiring peace-promoting actions across Austria, such as acts of nonviolent resistance, transformative educational programs, legal reforms, and environmental initiatives. The Atlas highlights the deep connections between peace, social justice, the fair treatment of migrants, gender equality, and climate protection.

By showcasing these examples, the Peace Atlas aims to inspire individuals to incorporate peace-promoting actions into their daily lives and develop their projects for a more just and harmonious world. Organizations like AbFaNG and others are available to support those ready to embark on this path.
