Afterglow - Home Cover Page Introduction Background Info. Peace Trust Aims, etc. The Tasmanian Peace Trust was established in 1985 as a means of continuing the initiatives arising from the International Year of Peace. It is a non-political, legally constituted body which operates under a Deed of Trust.
Funding comes from the public through donations, interest free loans and bequests.
Twice a year the Trust makes funds available to individuals and groups who submit peace projects. The Afterglow Poetry Competition was one such project. Many of the initiatives it has helped to encourage might not otherwise have taken root.
