The Civil Peace Service

We don´t shy away from conflict
The Civil Peace Service is a programme aimed at preventing violence and promoting peace in crisis zones and conflict regions. It aims to build a world in which conflicts are resolved without resorting to violence.  

The Civil Peace Service (CPS) is a programme for violence prevention, civil conflict transformation and peacebuilding. Together with local partner organisations, nine German peace and development organisations are working towards a world in which conflicts are resolved without violence. CPS peace workers provide long-term support to local people in their commitment for justice, human rights and peace. Currently more than 380 international peace workers are active in about 45 countries. The Civil Peace Service is funded by the German Government.
