About Our Chapter
The Madison for a World BEYOND War chapter was launched in 2022. The chapter vigils for a ceasefire in Israel Palestine and war abolition, and calls on elected officials to stop arming Israel and reduce military spending, stop flying F-35 warplanes over Madison, and to push for diplomacy to end the war in Ukraine. The chapter co-sponsors a monthly Antiwar Film Series.
We offer organizing internships for college students to do anti-war work in Madison. You can donate to support the internships at our fundraiser page here.
Madison for a World BEYOND War is committed to nonviolence. We do not collaborate with anyone who glorifies or encourages the use of violence.
