Peace Culture Village 

Peace Culture Village (PCV) is a PEAC campus in the countryside of Hiroshima Prefecture in Japan. Aside from being a Japanese nonprofit, international eco-village, organic farm, and experiential peace training camp, PCV hosts PEAC programs where underserved youth from around the world can experience peace culture lifestyle, reflect on what peace means to them, and learn skills to bring back to their communities.

 PCV cultivates peace as a way of life. The devastating consequences of war are visible around the world, but even in Hiroshima, there is little discussion of how human hearts, minds, conversations, and social/economic/political systems have to change if we hope to create a culture of peace. PCV is working to fill this gap by providing hands-on, skills-based training in conflict resolution and sustainable living.
