The Irish Network for Nonviolent Action Training and Education (INNATE) was established as a result of the need for an umbrella group to support groups and individuals exploring nonviolent approaches to conflict issues.

Aims:

To act as a network linking those committed to, or interested in, explicitly nonviolent action and training. Some, but not all, of INNATE's work is essentially intertwined with community relations and the development of a nonviolent response to areas of community tension. In the context of 'peace' work, INNATE insists that a radical concept of nonviolence and nonviolent action, learning from both Irish and International experience, offers much in addressing the conflict in Northern Ireland.
