Our Projects
-
2020 Action
Informs and empowers Americans to turn concern into meaningful action for a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world. Each month, members receive a concise postcard on a critical peace or environmental issue, with a suggested action they can take in just 20 minutes. Focused on timely, personal outreach to policymakers, 2020 Action helps citizens make their voices heard—because democracy works best when people participate.

The Elders Project
Supports the traditional authorities (Mamos) of Colombia’s Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta—home to the Arhuaco, Kogui, Wiwa, and Kanquamo peoples—who face threats of cultural extinction from development and displacement. Founded in 2009, TEP works in partnership with the Mamos to preserve ancestral knowledge, fund cultural preservation projects, and publish recordings and writings of elder wisdom-keepers. Through these efforts, TEP strengthens Indigenous identity and unity in defense of sacred land and tradition.
-
Indigenous Solidarity Fund
This fund supports elders, leaders, and wisdom-keepers of Indigenous groups in Colombia and the Americas as they work to preserve their cultures, practices, and communities. Founded by Jesse Stamell and sponsored by EarthAction, ISF channels global support to Indigenous leaders facing threats to their lands, health, and traditions. Through funding, advocacy, and storytelling, ISF uplifts ancestral wisdom to help heal the relationship between people and the Earth.

A politically independent nonprofit in Nablus that serves children, adolescents, and families in the city, nearby villages, and three surrounding refugee camps. PHF promotes democracy, human rights, and peaceful conflict resolution, aiming to cultivate a new generation of civic-minded Palestinian leaders.

My name is Nika. I have worked with MAG in Ukraine since 2023 and lead a demining team, but I never imagined this would be my path.
Before the war, my life was very different. I had never even heard of demining. I lived abroad and worked in the diving and tourism industries. I traveled the world, enjoyed life and everything it had to offer.
In early 2022, I moved back to Ukraine. I was looking forward to being home and spending more time with my family.
But just two months later, war broke out.
Today, I lead a team of 11 men and women, who, every day, clear deadly explosives from the land.
This is what war does to ordinary people. Families are torn apart, lives and livelihoods are lost. They face countless risks every day.
But I want to be clear - despite all we have endured, we are not broken.
