FIREFLY INTERNATIONAL





Firefly International is a charity working to resolve conflict worldwide, by building links between communities everywhere and supporting youth, community and grassroots activities. We do this by focussing on what people have in common, rather than what separates them, and most of our activities are arts and culture based since these are the things that we all share.

We help young and marginalised people to set up their own projects and activities. Where they do not possess the confidence and skills to set up their own activities, we help them to find volunteering opportunities to build up their knowledge, confidence and experience.

We also run activities and projects to break down social division and conflict. These usually involve young people from different backgrounds, and focus on their shared interests and passions. Projects include summer camps, festivals, and series of workshops.




The blue links, on your left, describe our work and projects, and how to get involved in them. The pink links, on your right, offer resources to help you get more involved in your community, whether you see it as global or local. They include information to help you find out about what's happening in projects and communities around the world, get in touch with people in other countries, volunteer, set up your own projects, or just find resources to let you live the most ethical life you can.
