Civil resistance movements and campaigns are far more successful than is often assumed. In every decade of the past century, on six continents, popular movements using nonviolent tactics – including strikes, boycotts, and mass protests – overthrew oppressive regimes, successfully resisted military occupation, and brought justice and freedom to their societies.

Our website contains educational resources on civil resistance in over 65 languages. Many of these are available for free download.
