Better World Info - Unique Platform for Peace Activists

Be a Peace Warrior –
The Online Participatory Peace Project in English and German

Dr Norbert Stute & Rachael Mellor

September 4, 2023

Better World Info is a unique platform for peace, offering important resources and reliable information on the most pressing peace issues.
We invite peace activists who enjoy research and content creation to contact us and contribute to this ever-growing, high-quality Peace Directory making a difference.

While military budgets are skyrocketing, peacebuilding remains a grossly underfunded sideline. Global military spending increased for the eighth consecutive year in 2022, reaching a staggering $2.2 trillion. More 28 wars and armed conflicts are currently active, deadly, and unrelenting.

“The world is over-armed, and peace is under-funded,” said Ban Ki-moon, former UN Secretary-General.

Advancing peace efforts effectively is a collaborative journey. Our common goals for peace require the active participation and shared support of activists, organisations, journalists, scientists, politicians, and philanthropists.

The power of awareness and political education is not a task we should relinquish solely to social media, Google, Wikipedia, ChatGPT, or the NATO-compliant tabloid and mass media.

The peace movement has many excellent networks, organisations, and forums which specialise in localised issues and work independently, for example, the IPB, Peace News, WRI, TFF, World Beyond War, ICAN, CND, Stop War UK, and CAAT. Peace websites, newsletters, demonstrations, webinars, and forums are all important instruments of peace work.

There is a need to bring together up-to-date knowledge on an international level, provide an open platform for this knowledge to be shared, and expand our collective reach beyond the peace movement. In today’s fast-moving world, we must be able to familiarize ourselves on multiple complex topics quickly, all in one place.

This is where Better World Info comes in.

What Better World Info has to offer:

Better World Info is a non-profit website that offers a user-friendly, comprehensive internet directory with 500,000 hand-selected links on global topics in both English and German. It provides tools for individuals who want to improve our world, supports their projects, and promotes networking among NGOs.

In addition to the topic of peace, you will find many related subjects such as human rights, politics and elections, social justice, the environment, the global climate crisis, development and aid, education, and alternative news.

With over 100,000 links dedicated to peacebuilding and the peace movement, this valuable tool for peace activists has been trusted and recommended by the International Peace Bureau (IPB) for many years. With your help, this platform will become even better!

The Lay Down Your Arms Peace Prize for 2025 to Francesca Albanese
PRESS RELEASE – 6 OCTOBER 2025 LAY DOWN YOUR ARMSPEACE PRIZE FOR 2025 is awarded Francesca Albanese The United Nations Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories – as the person who, in accordance with Alfred Nobel’s will, has “done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations and for the abolition or reduction of standing armies as well as for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.” Francesca Albanese has forcefully and unwaveringly worked against Israel’s full-scale war on the occupied Palestinian territories, in particular Israel´s ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people. She has confronted Israel’s systematic war crimes and crimes against humanity in a truly global outreach. Further, she has brought governments, international organisations and people’s groups together to underline the responsibility of the world at large to act and to stop arming, enabling, and profiting from Israel’s ongoing criminal actions.

Denmark, Drones & Deception: Europe’s Staged Panic Over False Flag Non-Russian Drones?
Officially, the drones were not identified. By simply thinking critically – which journalists and selected experts no longer do – there may be a good reason for that. And this article will never be mentioned in Denmark… Drones over Denmark. No damage. No trace. No answers. Yet the headlines scream “Russian threat,” and Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen speaks with a certainty that defies logic: “We don’t know they were Russian—but we know Russia is the biggest threat to Europe.” It could be nobody else – unless you make an interest analysis which I did two days ago. This is not security policy. It’s theatre. And the audience is being played. Let’s rewind. These drones—unphotographed, untracked, unclaimed—appear and vanish like ghosts. Airports shut down. Panic spreads. Military budgets swell. And the narrative hardens: Russia is behind it. But what if that’s not just wrong but deliberately misleading? Here’s a hypothesis for...

President Trump’s insulting and demeaning speech at the UNGA
And why the world, especially the EU, must now declare itself independent of the United States. UN’s 80th anniversary This year, the United Nations celebrates the 80th anniversary of its founding. The UN was formed after the scourge of the Second World War, in which 70 to 85 million people were killed and many countries were destroyed. That war came on the heels of the First World War, which also killed between 15 and 22 million people. After the Second World War, especially after the use of nuclear weapons by the United States, which marked a turning point in the history of warfare that could result in the end of civilisation as we know it, humanity decided to move away from the era of empires and big power politics and usher in a new era of peace, freedom and cooperation. These were the principles enshrined in the UN Charter. The United States...

The Nobel ‘Peace’ Committe Awards US Military Regime Change Policies
OK, Trump did not get it. But he got a full endorsement of a possible future US regime change in Venezuela. And that is what Ms Machado has advocated. On October 10, 2025, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded its Peace Prize to Venezuelan opposition figure María Corina Machado. The citation praised her “tireless work promoting democratic rights.” But Ms Machado has openly called for U.S. military intervention in Venezuela, stating on CBS: “The only way to stop the suppression is by force—U.S. force.” She or her party has received funding from the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a U.S. government-backed body known as a CIA front organisation and for supporting regime-change operations worldwide. And in 2018, she sent a letter to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, asking him to use “force and influence” to help dismantle Venezuela’s government—citing alleged ties to terrorism, Iran and narcotrafficking. This year’s NATO Norwegian prize...

Don’t be fooled: Others Could Have More Interest in Sending Drones to the Nordic Countries than Russia
Drones over Nordic airports. No damage. No trace. No answers. Most assume Russia—but what if that’s not so? Why is there so much we are not told? This article explores the strategic ambiguity behind recent drone incursions and asks: Who else might benefit from sending drones into NATO airspace? From Ukraine’s surprising drone supremacy to Russia’s possible signalling, the silence itself may be the loudest message. These are the kinds of questions decent, intelligent investigative journalists and commentators could easily research. Why don’t they? Did you, dear reader, know or think of this? That the most powerful weapon in today’s conflicts might be the one that leaves no trace – and no answers. Just enough fear to justify the next move? Recently, drones have repeatedly appeared over Nordic airports and near some military facilities. They cause no damage – for which reason the designation “hybrid attack” is misleading but serves a purpose. These...
