Activate Labs partners with social movements, frontline communities, and peacebuilders to build people power, shift culture, and foster peace. Through tools, training, and creative methods, we create spaces for solidarity, creativity, and co-design, empowering collective action. Working at the crossroads of peacebuilding, cultural organizing, and nonviolent action, Activate Labs helps movements shape shared, just futures!
If the culture of violence is well-resourced, interconnected, strategic, & organized by design…
Then, our people-powered movements who build a culture of peace and justice must also be resourced, interconnected, strategic, & organized by design.
How we do this…
