SAIV was founded by Riane Eisler with Nobel Peace Laureate Betty Williams and is a project of the Center for Partnership Studies.
THE MISSION OF SAIV is to stop intimate violence - the training ground for the violence of war, terrorism, political repression, and crime.
Sadly, in many religious traditions the topic of intimate violence is avoided. Yet religious leaders are clearly in an excellent position to affect moral attitudes. Under the direction of SAIV Project Director Jim Kenney (former Global Director, Council for a Parliament of the World's Religions), SAIV is building the SAIV Council of influential religious, scientific, and political leaders to lend their voices to this issue.
