Nonviolent Peaceforce (NP) is a nonpartisan unarmed peacekeeping force composed of trained civilians from around the world. In partnership with local groups, Nonviolent Peaceforce members apply proven nonviolent strategies to protect human rights, deter violence, and help create space for local peacemakers to carry out their work.

On June 25th he spoke on behalf of NP at a briefing sponsored by the Peace and Security Funders Group at the UNICEF Headquarters in New York where he challenged funders to provide one half of the funds needed for NP to grow to 200 paid peacekeepers and 750 reserves.
