Rise. Resist. Create. Be in the PINK.
Campus CODEPINK seeks to empower, inspire, and amplify a community of peacemakers in order to build a lasting foundation of social activism. Campus involvement is essential to this movement as the voice of the youth plays a significant role in our society and has the power to make a change.
Campus CODEPINK chapters are popping up around the country and are taking action locally and, in doing so, are working to attain peace globally through creative activism. Join CODEPINK by speaking out at a local level and have fun while working to end this unjust war.
Purpose: The purpose of Campus CodePink for Peace is to activate and inspire UF students to promote peace through creative engagement of international peace and human rights issues and events.
Activities: Campus CodePink will hold conscienceness-raising events, raise money to support our troops and peace organizations, and engage students in activities that work to increase awareness of international human rights and peace.
Affiliations: We are affiliated with the national CODEPINK Women for Peace organization as well as the local Gainesville CodePink Women for Peace.

After sharing the love and declaring "Make Out Not War" at our Valentine's Day Kiss-In, Campus CodePinkis getting ready for some truth education and activist trainings with our upcoming events. We will be joining a three-day activist training and parade event hosted by the Backbone Campaign on March 19-21, hosting our reading of how we got into Iraq from Susan Dixon and Col. Ann Wright's eye-opening book, Dissent: Voices of Conscience in April, and working on a War is Not Green Campaign for Earth Day. We will also be hosting a movie series featuring films that focus on the realities and consequences of the Iraq and Afghanistan War.
