PGA works to link individual legislators across borders and party lines, with the goal of strengthening their capacity to pursue international peace, social justice and development. Parliamentarians for Global Action (PGA) was established in 1978-1979 in Washington, DC, U.S.A. by concerned parliamentarians from around the world to address global problems, which could not be solved by any one government or parliament. While its initial focus was on disarmament and the prevention of nuclear proliferation, PGA today works on an expanded list of global issues such as fostering democracy, conflict prevention and management, international law and human rights, population and sustainable development.
