  • Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies
    • Dedicated to understanding the causes of violent conflict and to identifying and promoting the conditions for sustainable peace, the Joan B. Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame engages in research, graduate and undergraduate education, policy studies, and service to the local, national and international communities. The Institute specializes in the religious and ethnic dimensions of deadly conflict and peacebuilding; the ethics of the use of force; and the peacemaking role of international norms, policies and institutions, including a focus on economic sanctions and enforcement of human rights. This research and policy orientation informs the Institute's education and training of professional peacemakers, who are active in a variety of settings globally.

  • Lombard Mennonite Peace Center
    • The Lombard Mennonite Peace Center (LMPC) ministry receives its impetus from II Corinthians 5:18 - "All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation." Thus, LMPC seeks to ground its peacemaking in a biblical understanding of salvation and Christian discipleship.
    • LMPC was conceived as a peace resource center - sharing speakers, audio-visual resources, and literature with churches and the broader public throughout the Chicago metropolitan area and beyond. Initially LMPC was called upon to provide educational resources on biblical peacemaking in regard to such issues as the nuclear arms race, U.S.-Soviet relations, Central America, and other global issues.
    • As a non-profit ministry, LMPC works to encourage the nonviolent transformation of conflict in relationships in homes, workplaces, schools, churches, and throughout our world.  Our programs and resources address ways of resolving conflicts and building healthier relationships in all of these various settings.
