Nonviolence in
Action
No philosophy can survive
in stagnation. Nonviolence is no exception. Through this page we bring you closer
to active nonviolent campaigns that are using the Gandhian method with improvisations
to seek social, political and economic change. We hope this page becomes a place
where people interested in nonviolence can learn from real examples. If you
would like to share your experiences of a nonviolent campaign then please do
not hesitate to write to us at info@yidream.org.
Our main
nonviolence page provides the theoretical framework for nonviolent campaigns.
If you are interested in starting a nonviolent campaign and need help then do
let us know. We have some useful resources at our disposal that we would be
delighted to share with you. We hope the writings on this page inspire you to
action.
