The Peace and Empowerment Project (PEP) is a student club devoted to fund raising to improve the situation of women and families in developing and war-torn countries so that they can become greater parts of their local peace process. Past events we have had as a club include bringing speakers to campus, movie nights and discussions, open mic nights at the Davenport, a fair trade market on the quad, and more. This year we are sponsoring a woman in Rwanda through Women for Women International.

"If thy Tongue Can Speak": performance 
PEP is sponsoring If Thy Tongue Can Speak, a play written, directed, and produced by AU students. The play gives a voice to those who cannot tell their story and aims to spread the news of the crisis in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in an effort to inspire students to respond creatively and to act immediately to end a conflict that has lasted too long.
