The Justice and Peace Commission relies on a vast network of partners in Belgium and abroad in order to carry out its work of analysis, political advocacy and awareness-raising on Human Rights and social justice issues. .
With a Christian identity, Justice and Peace advocates openness and a pluralistic spirit which leads it to collaborate with partners from various sectors of society. The fight for Human Rights is universal, it is therefore essential to know how to surround yourself with the right partners in order to achieve the progress necessary for just and united human societies. Here are our partners:

Conference of European Justice and Peace Commissions
The Conference of European Justice and Peace Commissions (Justice and Peace Europe) was founded in 1971 by 11 national Justice and Peace commissions – Belgium (Fr), Germany, England & Wales, France, Ireland, Luxemburg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland and Spain. It was born out of the conviction that to cooperate will achieve more to further development, justice and peace than to work only as individual commissions.
