Want to be part of a family of peacebuilders you can learn and grow with? Curious about joining an organization passionate about cultivating healing, justice, and reconciliation in our neighborhoods and beyond?
Become a volunteer or a part-time or full-time staff member to join us in the work of peacebuilding, wherever you are.
As a Peace Catalyst Peace Ambassador, you’ll be a volunteer who builds community and spreads a vision of peace in your context, empowered with PCI's coaching, resources, and ongoing support.
As a part-time or full-time peacebuilder, you’ll have the ability to crowdfund through Peace Catalyst to sustain your peacebuilding work for longer-term transformative collaborations in you community and beyond, inviting others into movements for peace through action and learning.
+Why do staff raise their own funds?
Peacebuilding organizations are often funded in large part through grants, which can limit the sustainability and impact of their peacebuilding efforts because of 1) the ups and downs of funding cycles, 2) short-term goals because of grant timelines and deliverables, 3) the competitive nature of grant applications, 4) neglect of capacity and relationship building, and much more. Although crowdfunding can be challenging up front, crowdfunded peacebuilders have the capacity to focus on the relationships, contextual priorities, and unlikely collaborations that are needed to work toward a durable peace.
As a crowdfunded Peace Catalyst staff member, you have the flexibility to start building peace right where you are, in your own local context and in a way that addresses the conflicts and opportunities that are unique to your location. You’ll get on-the-job training, learn the Peace Catalyst ethos, and build your resume as you connect with diverse groups and gain hands-on peacebuilding skills.
