About Friedensnews.at
Friedensnews.at is an independent online magazine for peace journalism, founded in Vienna in 2003.
It was created by Andreas H. Landl, who has served as Founder and Editor-in-Chief from the beginning and has also been the owner since 2026.
Friedensnews.at is non-profit, non-commercial, and independent of political parties and religions. It is based on a clear idea: peace and peace journalism are matters of global public interest. In the view of its authors, profit-driven media and many so-called public media often follow other priorities. Friedensnews.at therefore works to strengthen non-violent solutions, human dignity, critical thinking, and international understanding.
The magazine sees itself as part of the newer social movements that promote peace by peaceful means.
