Journalists, educators, and activists keep up to date on the important work of peacemaking by reading this popular and respected magazine. Four times a year we publish articles, news stories, book and film reviews, letters, and podcast and video links. We discuss disarmament; conflict resolution; nonviolent sanctions; peace institutions (e.g. the United Nations and the World Court); conflicts and crises around the world; profiles of activists and researchers; and controversies about development, population, and environmental protection.

Our stories are technically accurate, yet intelligible to any reader with a general education and some interest in international affairs and global security.

We rely heavily on volunteers, including our associate editors who select and commission articles for each issue.

Because so many new global threats to humankind have emerged, we have long felt the need to address issues beyond nuclear weapons and traditional global conflicts. Today, it is essential to discuss matters such as global warming, famine, pandemics, radioactive contamination, cyber risks, governance and human rights challenges, the global economy, and the state of civil society.

In 2018, we sponsored a conference at the University of Toronto titled “How to Save the World in a Hurry,” which examined all of these issues. Many participants wished to continue the conversation on these broader topics, so we launched a series of online forums, which we posted to YouTube and to our new website, tosavetheworld.ca. Over the next few years, this expanded project grew in popularity—just as magazine subscriptions declined, partly because the disarmament movement had lost momentum.

As a result, we incorporated Project Save the World in Ontario as a not-for-profit corporation and made Peace Magazine its newsletter, distributed globally online to activist groups and individual readers.

Peace Magazine no longer has a conventional print edition, but we now produce a very attractive (and full-colour) digital edition. Click below for subscription information at PressReader:
