What We Do

Metta is a collaborator, advisor, and active participant in the nonviolent movement. We work to raise consciousness about nonviolence, and serve as a catalyst in the shift toward a nonviolent paradigm. To this end we offer ourselves and our knowledge in service to all those who wish to participate in the grand experiment of nonviolence, as:

• A repository of information and teachings on Gandhian (Principled) nonviolence
• A consulting resource and thinktank dedicated to mainstreaming nonviolence; and
• An incubator of experiments in nonviolence

We bring to wider audiences the nonviolence of Gandhi, who adopted his methods from the wisdom traditions of human civilization and scientifically developed them for the conditions of his time. We strive to adapt those timeless principles yet again for the modern age, through active promotion, innovative projects, and principled practice. In this, we join the world community in the great task of advancing humanity toward the goal of peace.

Please explore the resources on our site and see our projects page to see how we’re putting this vision into practice.
