PATRIR
The Peace Action, Training and Research Institute of Romania (PATRIR) was founded in 2001 as a non-governmental, non-profit, politically independent organization in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The mission of PATRIR is to transform the way the world deals with conflicts, working from the local to the global levels – in partnership with communities, countries, and national and international organizations – to make peacebuilding and the constructive transformation of conflicts the basis for sustainable peace. PATRIR is the joint effort of hard-working people believing in its values. These people coordinate, work, or volunteer for the existing departments and programs, or in the administrative division of the Institute.
PATRIR was created as a result of numerous dialogues with representatives from various social sectors, as a response to the need for change within the local communities. In its strive to support the local communities in their development and meeting everyday challenges, the Institute lays its activity on to four pillars: action, training, research, advocacy, and awareness-raising.
The institute has as its basic principles non-violence, conflict transformation, the promotion of human rights through information and awareness-raising by solutions-oriented, social, political, and economic analysis.
PATRIR is committed to a world in which conflicts are transformed constructively, through peaceful means – in which individuals, communities, countries, and local, national, regional, and international organisations and actors are empowered to address conflicts effectively and work together to do so. Even though the headquarters of the Institute is in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, it works at a regional, national, and international level.
