What we do

Impacting the Catholic Church

Pax Christi International, the global Catholic peace movement, has promoted peace and nonviolence worldwide for decades, fostering dialogue across ecumenical, interreligious, and cultural contexts.

Guided by the Gospel and Jesus’ teachings, our work extends beyond the Church and spans diverse debates and challenges, striving for a nonviolent future for all humanity.

Our Initiatives

Pax Christi International´s Catholic Nonviolence Initiative was established in 2016 to deepen Catholic understanding of and commitment to Gospel nonviolence. Its three specific goals are related to this mission:

That Gospel nonviolence becomes central to Catholic life and cross-cutting in Catholic Social Teaching

That the Church regularly applies a Gospel nonviolence-centered framework and well developed nonviolent strategies to contemporary reality

That Church structures teach and promote nonviolence to educate and mobilise Catholics all over the world
