Field Programs: As an international nonprofit organization with the primary activity of conducting direct unarmed civilian protection (UCP) in areas where civilians are under threat of violent conflict, Nonviolent Peaceforce (NP) in the United States provides support services for its field programs. This support entails functions of administration, fundraising, public outreach, United Nations advocacy and new project exploration. While the field projects themselves have costs incurred and funding raised outside of the United States. Thus, the vast majority of NP's expenses are reflected in tax reports filed in other countries and not in the United States. However, the funds raised and the administration provided by the United States operation, are critically necessary in obtaining non-U.S. funding for the field operations. NP teams continued to operate in the Philippines, South Sudan, Myanmar, Lebanon and Iraq. The United States office provides support for new project exploration and start up, and providing staff welfare support for field teams. These activities are essential for due diligence and effective programming and to obtain field project funds. Thus, U.S. funding and Non-U.S. funding are inter-related.
Advocacy: Nonviolent Peaceforce advanced the understanding of and policy and funding support for unarmed civilian protection at the United Nations through Briefings, meetings with United Nations officials and staff of UN agencies and Missions. NP advocated for the inclusion of unarmed civilian protection language and concept in a variety of UN Resolutions, guidance documents, non-governmental UN Parallel events and conferences.
Outreach: Nonviolent Peaceforce (NP) gave presentations to educational, civic and religious organizations to educate the public on civilian unarmed protection. NP provided background information to and consulted with UN agencies and missions on unarmed civilian protection and violence prevention. NP worked with other similar organizations to identify good practices in the field and their e-learning course on unarmed civilian protection.
