Who We Are


Founders

The Internet Peace Center was founded by Dr. Gerald Nehman, Ph. D., and Adam Jochelson as a reaction to the prevalence of conflict throughout the world today.  Knowing that there existed Peace Centers associated with various cities around the U. S. (Washington, Dallas, etc.), we assumed that there must some "Internet" Peace Center serving as a one-stop shop for those interested in knowing what was going on in the peace arena around the world.  Surprisingly, we found none; so, we decided to make one of our own.  This is it.
