Chemchemi Ya Ukweli (CYU) – Kiswahili for Wellspring of Truth—Trust is an interfaith movement that was founded in 1997 by a group of religious leaders concerned about this growing culture of violence in Kenya. Its founding fathers, who were rooted in the ideas of Catholic Social Teaching, introduced the concept of “active non-violence” as an alternative means in the struggle for peace and justice in that country.
Its mission is enhancing social transformation through Active Non-Violence (ANV), community policing, civic education, research, networking, and Inter-religious Dialogue (IRD) in order to achieve the rule of law, public safety, harmony and self-development in Kenya
