what is peace project?

The purpose of this organization is to promote awareness and activism at Northwestern University that focuses on peace and justice issues locally, nationally, and internationally. We organize informational programming with the goal of raising awareness and, in turn, mobilize the Northwestern community to take a more proactive stance in combating issues of social injustice and human rights violations.

Peace Project denounces the existence of patents, copyrights and all forms of intellectual property monopoly. We reject the economic and political system that forces creators to restrict access to their work in order to make a living while allowing corporations to profit by denying society the benefits of art and innovation.
