Vision & Mission

zach-reiner-hW11fwjzVfA-unsplash.jpg
Design for Peace nurtures an ecology of peace in Cascadia by accompanying communities of faith through culture-shift and systems change. 
 
The harvest of this work is both healthy fruit - impactful, visible, practical experiments that make real the vision of peace - and healthy soil - leaders and communities growing in their capacity to practice their collective vocation of peace. 
 
Design for Peace emerged from an ecosystem of partners who are invested in the emergence of contextually discerned and designed experiments in peace.

The Kind of Peace We're About

SHALOM

 /ʃəˈlɑ:m/ - [ sh uh - l OH m ] - שָׁלוֹם‎  -  سَلَام‎ 

Love, Healing and Justice at Every Level of Life.
A divine intention, deeper than simply ʻpeaceʼ, but signifies true thriving, wellbeing, justice and wholeness for all.
