Action on Armed Violence

Action on Armed Violence (AOAV) is a non-profit organization that tracks and analyzes armed conflict data to inform policy decisions and advocate for peace. Founded in 2011, AOAV has gained notoriety recently due to its critical stance on Israeli actions in Lebanon and South Korea. The organization's recent involvement in highlighting documented abuses committed by Israeli forces has sparked controversy and raised questions about accountability. AOAV's work is relevant as it sheds light on the human cost of armed conflict and pushes for a more peaceful resolution to global conflicts.
