In September 2024, given the challenges presented by ongoing wars and egregious violence, Pax Christi International’s Catholic Nonviolence Initiative (CNI) established the Catholic Institute for Nonviolence bringing experiences of nonviolence from the peripheries around the world into dialogue with researchers, theologians and Church leaders.
CNI understands nonviolence as a spirituality, a way of life, a spectrum of methods for social transformation and, potentially, a universal ethic.
The mission of the Catholic Institute for Nonviolence is to make nonviolence research, resources and experience, more accessible to Catholic Church leaders, communities and institutions in order to deepen Catholic understanding of and commitment to the practice of Gospel nonviolence.
