Peace Mob

Code of Conduct

Last updated: May 28, 2026

Peace Mob exists to create free, peaceful, public gatherings — anywhere in the world, anyone can join. The rules below keep that promise true. Hosts and attendees are expected to follow them.

1. Open to All

Free and non-commercial. No entry fees, no advertising, no upselling, no soliciting. All are welcome regardless of background, belief, or identity.

2. Reclaiming Public Space

Use public places — parks, plazas, transit stations, university quads. Anywhere a stranger can encounter and join. Private homes, ticketed venues, and members-only spaces don't qualify as Peace Mobs.

3. 23 Minutes of Silence

Every Peace Mob opens with 23 minutes of silence. This is non-negotiable. Each attendee chooses how to spend the silence — sitting meditation, walking, sipping tea, gentle mindful movement, silent prayer, anything compatible with shared silence.

4. Show Up as a Person, Not a Position

No politics, partisanship, religion, recruitment, or divisive content. If it creates conflict, it's not Peace Mob. Bring yourself, leave the agenda.

5. Sober & Chemical-Free

Don't bring alcohol or substances. No synthetic fragrances — one in three people are sensitive.

6. Be a Good Guest

Leave the place better than you found it. Treat passersby and fellow attendees with care.

7. If You're Bringing Food

Sharing food after the silence is welcome. If you bring something:

  • Label common allergens — nuts, dairy, eggs, gluten, soy, shellfish.
  • Skip anything that needs refrigeration or heating unless you can keep it at a safe temperature for the whole gathering.
  • Prepare and handle it cleanly.
  • Attendees eat at their own risk. Use your judgment about what you take.

Host Responsibilities

If you host a Peace Mob, you take on additional responsibilities:

  • You're the organizer. Peace Mob is a platform — hosts run their own gatherings.
  • You're responsible for obtaining any permits if required by your chosen venue.
  • You ensure the space is safe and accessible for attendees.
  • You clean up after the gathering.
  • You uphold the Peace Mob format: free, public, opens with 23 minutes of silence.
  • You treat attendees and passersby with care.

Peace Mob may remove gatherings and hosts that violate these rules.
