UnRival is a network for those committed to nonviolence. We believe dignity and justice can transform cycles of rivalry and conflict.We are called unRival because unrelenting rivalry creates cycles of violence and systemic oppression. Rivalry contagiously spreads animosity, shame, and scarcity thinking. But peace is contagious, too.We serve peacebuilders (artists, academics, and activists) working directly in their communities. By helping leaders detangle from the rivalries around them, we help set them free to influence and inspire entire communities toward positive peace. In our programs, we refer to these high-potential, high-impact leaders as “artisans of peace.”To stay in touch, find us on social media, visit our website, and subscribe for our bi-weekly newsletter, The Frame.

Peacebuilders need our support now more than ever, and unRival’s programs offer crucial nonrivalrous space to combat feelings of isolation and burnout.
