PARTNER PRESENTATION Page 2 In Place of War is a global organisation that uses artistic creativity in places of conflict as a tool for positive change. We enable grassroots change-makers in music, theatre and across the arts to transform a culture of violence and suffering into hope, opportunity and freedom. Page 3 Our focus is on supporting individuals or communities that have been affected by WAR POST-WAR GANG-WAR POLITICAL OPPRESSION Page 4 Page 4 Amy Essam WHY ART? Photo by Platon The arts can provide an inspirational alternative to violence and an opportunity for the voiceless to express themselves. Music, theatre and the arts can be a form of resistance, an act of defiance or a simple bridge of reconciliation. Creativity across the arts gives individuals and communities the opportunity to transcend their limitations and see potential in themselves and the world around them.
