The Global Nonviolent Action Database

The Global Nonviolent Action (GNVA) Database is an online resource that catalogues and analyzes nonviolent protests and movements worldwide. It provides detailed information on various campaigns, including their methods, goals, and outcomes. The database helps users understand how nonviolent strategies—like protests, strikes, and civil disobedience—are used to challenge power and bring about social or political change. By offering data and case studies, GNVA supports research, education, and the analysis of effective nonviolent action across different contexts and eras.
