\nPPNRCD – stands for <\/p>\n
Peaceful Protest
\nNonviolent Resistance
\nCivil Disobedience<\/p>\n
In short, these three methods are representing the essence of Mahatma Gandhi’s fight for the independence of India from the British Empire (15 August 1947)
\nAt his time during the global conflicts of WWII, this was most unusual to propagate nonviolence instead of violence and war which was more popular in the uprising nationalism worldwide.
\nBut Gandhi was successful, however, he was paying a very high price – he was assassinated like his likeminded follower Martin Luther King, while propagating nonviolence and, Nelson Mandela whose nonviolence finally succeeded only after he was sitting for decades in prison.<\/p>\n
150 years ago – on 2 October 1869, Mahatma Gandhi was born, he was assassinated on 10 January 1948.
\nWhat can Gandhi’s methods tell us today?
\nThey haven’t lost anything of their explosive force, think of the current movements of climate change, social equality etc, when “war” and enforcing conflicts are again an option. There is no politician on Earth who does not speak of war currently – War against the virus, against terrorism, economical, ethnical war, war for and against occupation, war against the own people etc!<\/p>\n

\nWhile Gandhis achievements are representing the historical roots for later nonviolent political and social movements, the open call would like to spotlight incidents taking place after Gandhi’s death driven by the spirit of non-violence and humanity, think of Martin Luther King’s equal rights movement, the peaceful revolution of the German Re-unification or the liberation from the Apartheit in SouthAafrica, for instance, or current movements of climate change, or all the daily situations when people overcome conflicts via nonviolence.<\/p>\n
