Beyond War’s eight-week Study Series provides a vibrant array of ideas participants explore together through thoughtful dialogue. Group members have an opportunity to internalize Beyond War’s guiding principles and core practices, and to craft effective, nonviolent responses to both current and future conflicts. In addition, drawing from historical models, the series explores such topics as encouraging social change, exploring efficient alternatives to violence and understanding successful advocacy.

People who complete the course report feeling more hopeful, energized and empowered to help effect change. The course goes into depth about not only what strategies will work personally and globally to move the world beyond war, but it explores the tools and the language that help us talk intelligently and effectively with people who think that war is inevitable or a necessary evil.
