PEACE LABZ (Lebanese Team for Transforming Conflicts)

The Lebanese Group for Transforming Conflicts, known as Peace Labz, aims at empowering Lebanese communities to address conflicts nonviolently and creatively. In this multi-stakeholders venture, Peace Labz works closely with individuals, Community Based Organizations (CBOs), local Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), local actors such as municipalities and mukhtars, in addition to donor agencies and ministries.

For us, Peace is not an end result, rather, Peace is a daily strife and a conscious effort to work for and promote a world that has the institutions, the culture and the people who believe in the peaceful transformation of conflicts and in the preservation of the human life.

Vision A Lebanese society free of violence and capable of transforming its conflicts peacefully.

Mission To empower the Lebanese society to transform conflicts creatively and nonviolently by strengthening its capacities on the local level to address conflicts and by intervening, when asked to, in conflicts as mediators and conflict facilitators.

Values Humanism - Neutrality - Impartiality - Compassion - Contribution - Learning and sharing
