The people of Gangjeong village on Jeju Island, South Korea, have struggled nonviolently for eight years to prevent the construction of a naval base that threatens their livelihoods, the local ecology and the peace of northeast Asia.
Learn more about the struggle at a local screening of the documentary Gureombi, The Wind is Blowing. You may also be interested in a local talk with two of the movement’s activists, on the following evening. See the event flyer.

We provide educational resources on the safe and effective use of nonviolence, with the recognition that it’s not about putting the right person in power but awakening the right kind of power in people. We advance a higher image of humankind while empowering people to explore the question: How does nonviolence work, and how can I actively contribute to a happier, more peaceful society?
