Cover of Die Friedens-Warte, a German journal of the peace movement, issue #11, 1913 A peace movement is a social movement that seeks to achieve ideals such as the ending of a particular war (or all wars), minimising inter-human violence in a particular place or  situation, and is often linked to  achieving world peace. Several means can be used to achieve these ends including advocacy of pacifism, non-violent resistance, diplomacy, boycotts, peace camps, moral purchasing, supporting anti-war political candidates, legislation to remove the profit from government contracts to the military–industrial complex, banning guns, creating open government and transparency tools, direct democracy, supporting whistleblowers who expose war crimes or conspiracies to create wars, demonstrations, and national political lobbying groups to create legislation. The political cooperative is an example of an organisation that seeks to merge all peace movement organisations and green organisations, who share the common goal of peace and humane sustainability. Some peace activists are concerned that peace is not an attainable goal due to violence being used as a means of communication and empowerment by those who oppose it .

The political cooperative is an example of an organization that seeks to merge all peace movement organizations and green organizations, which may have some diverse goals, but all of whom have the common goal of peace and humane sustainability. A concern of some peace activists is the challenge of attaining peace when those that oppose it often use violence as their means of communication and empowerment .
