Waging Nonviolence is a nonprofit media organization within the Internet News sector that provides original reporting and expert analysis of social movements around the world. It emphasizes accuracy, transparency, and editorial independence as it covers movement activity, drawing on history and current research. The organization aims to deepen public understanding of how movements shape politics and to illuminate the agency of those pursuing just and peaceful solutions. Founded in 2009 and based in Brooklyn, New York, it has historically focused on overlooked movements in the Global South and facilitates cross-cultural knowledge exchange. Its audience comprises readers seeking substantive, context-rich coverage of social movements and their political implications. Through a Community platform supported by annual membership dues, grassroots organizations and social-movement-focused university programs can publish stories on their own branded pages with editorial support from WNV editors, broadening movement perspectives.
