The Non-Violence Foundation is a trust based in India, established in 2017 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the famous Indigo Movement. This was the first movement led by Mahatma Gandhi and was a struggle for the rights of farmers and social justice, using non-violent resistance as a tool. The foundation’s goal is to promote peace, create a nonviolent society, protect the environment, and promote sustainable farming and food. The foundation has also established the Charkha Museum in Connaught Place, New Delhi, and has made a difference in 11 states. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the foundation reached out to and supported over 1300 families. They have also started their flagship project, the Mahatma Gandhi College of Social Work in New Delhi.
