It is out of a desire to promote the causes of peace, justice, nonviolence, and love that The Peace Abbey bestows the Courage of Conscience Award on its recipients. The award is being presented in honor of the late Elise Boulding, a sociologist, pacifist, feminist and scholar who wrote extensively about conflict resolution in both personal and global relations and who helped establish the academic field know as peace studies.
