Our Work in Europe

In 2017, Peace First partnered with a coalition of organizations to launch a revolutionary approach to youth-led social action in the UK. Our strategy empowers young people to challenge injustice and create change by unleashing their moral imaginations through training and resources.

Since then, we’ve funded an unprecedented number of youth-led projects across the UK, addressing a wide range of critical issues in their communities, including employment access, racism in schools, and social isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In 2019, Peace First expanded its impact to Europe, supporting young changemakers in Italy, France, Ukraine, and beyond. Our efforts have focused on public health, women’s access to STEM education and careers, and other pressing issues.
