Peace & Justice

Partnerships

BCA Study Abroad and the PJSA

The Peace and Justice Studies Association (PJSA) is a non-profit organization that was formed in 2001 as a result of a merger of the Consortium on Peace research, Education and Development (COPRED) and the Peace Studies Association (PSA).  Both organizations provided leadership in the broadly defined field of peace, conflict and justice studies.

PJSA works to create a just and peaceful world through:

  1. The promotion of peace studies within universities, colleges and K-12 grade levels
  2. The forging of alliances among educators, students, activists, and other peace practitioners in order to enhance each other's work on peace, conflict and non-violence
  3. The creation and nurturing of alternatives to structures of inequality and injustice, war and violence through education, research and action.

The Peace and Justice Studies Association's (PJSA) mission of promoting peace and justice through education, research and action is a strong fit with BCA's mission to engage students, faculty, and college and university staff members in international programs focused on peace, justice and other issues of mutual concern.

Because of new partnerships between BCA and PJSA, PJSA Institutional members' students and PJSA student members will receive special consideration for BCA’s distinctive educational programs all over the world.  

BCA will waive application fees for peace studies students from PJSA member institutions who want to attend BCA peace and justice studies programs abroad.
