Peace and Justice Task Force
About us
We are a team within RCTHM dedicated to promoting activities that support the theme of “Peace and Justice” or “Vrede en recht”, which lies at the heart of The Hague muncipality.
Our activities include fund raising for Peace and Justice related organisations or initiatives. Our most recent project included sending funds to our colleagues in Rotary Kyiv International in order to support “internally Displaced Persons” in Ukraine with basic needs such as housing and food.
We also support Water Co-operation and Diplomacy Students during their period as a student at IHE Delft
We actively promote the Rotary Foundation Peace Fellowships and participate in the selection process for applicants. For more information on Rotary Peace Centres, where Rotary Peace Fellows study, please see the following link:

Visiting organisations related to Peace and Justice is also one of our regular activities. In 2023 we look forward to planning a visit to Eurojust ( European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Cooperations.)
