The Peace, Justice and Security Foundation
About us
The Peace, Justice and Security Foundation was established in 2016 under the umbrella of the Hague Justice Portal, a website that was officially launched by Her Royal Highness Princess Margriet of the Netherlands in The Hague on 6 April 2006. The Portal promotes, and provides greater access to, the institutions, courts and organisations in The Hague, The Netherlands, working in the field of international peace, justice, and security.
MISSION OF THE FOUNDATION:
The Foundation was established to:
“Globally educate, promote, represent victims and create awareness of the ideals of Peace, Justice and Security among all age groups and communities; and provide, in association with The Hague Justice Portal, an information hub and platform for public institutions in The Hague and other stakeholders to stimulate a more inclusive dialogue of peace, justice and security”.
Our Mission is: “Education for conscious change”
With the use of educational materials, the foundation will use books, film, music, sports, publications, storytelling, animations, media and online campaigns, as well as events to raise awareness.
As a connected global society, we no longer have the right to look away but have a moral obligation to act. To protect each of us, we must protect our global community to ensure peace, justice and security for all.
