Checkpoint Peace is the cooperation between Vitsche Berlin and Platform Tu, Mariupol. Both organizations have experience in public actionism, culture and arts, and non-formal education, sharing the same values and principles. The project is the reaction on 1 year of full-scale invasion, and both partner institutions teamed up to address one of the most difficult topics - pacifism, memory, and peace.

Checkpoint Peace is supported by the Prague Civil Society Center.
