just and peaceful global community. To do this Bob and Alice design and lead programs around the world. In China, Plowshares trains leaders in
consensus building and sustainable development. In Indonesia, Plowshares, working with the Center for Empowering Reconciliation and Peace and the
Indonesian Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, has equipped some 3,600 leaders to transform conflict, promote democratic participation, and
protect human rights. The Institute is also at work in South Africa, Uganda, Brazil, the United States, and numerous other nations.
