The International Fellowship
of Reconciliation (IFOR) is an international, spiritually-based movement
of people who, from the basis of a belief in the power of love and truth
to create justice and restore community, commit themselves to active
nonviolence as a way of life and as a means of transformation –
personal, social, economic, and political.
IFOR members range from housewives to Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, from
students to professionals. They come from different religions and
cultures. What unites them is a vision of justice and reconciliation and
a search for concrete alternatives to violence.
IFOR believes in the power of active nonviolence. Fundamental to IFOR’s
work is its spiritual basis. IFOR members include Buddhists, Christians,
Hindus, Jews and Muslims, and others who express their spirituality in a
philosophical commiment to nonviolence.
IFOR branches and groups promote active nonviolence through various
nonviolence education and training programs, work with youth, interfaith
dialogue, and efforts to build a culture of peace. IFOR’s Women
Peacemakers Program works to empower women in the struggle for peace and
justice.
For more information on how you can support our work, please contact the
International Secretariat by emailing to: office@ifor.org.
