Welcome to the Australian Living Peace Museum, an online museum dedicated to telling the stories of Australia’s heritage of peace and non-violence, and how they are based in social justice. This is a virtual museum – rather than holding our own collection we tell stories of peace and non-violence using collection items held in Australia’s public museums, libraries and art galleries, or in private collections.

 

The carousel below shows some of favourite items. 

 

 

You can browse stories or individual items, using the menu above or the tiles below. You can also search for specific information. 

Some of our items have been mapped or dated and we are adding more items to these maps and timelines. You can explore these as well.
