Over the years, we have gained experience and expertise in a number of areas relating to addressing conflict. We prioritise these topics in our practical peacebuilding work and research.

Violence does not respect boundaries, and does not arise in a vacuum. Some of our work spans multiple regions to explore and share common strategies for resolving conflict peacefully.

Our work focuses on a number of different conflicts and situations, covering seven regions. Every conflict is uniquely complex, so we always work with our partners on the ground to analyse and understand the dynamics in each region, and tailor our responses.

In 1994, our founders had a vision: to transform the way the world resolves violent conflict so people work together to build peaceful and inclusive societies. 30 years later, we continue to strive towards that vision, bringing people together to find creative and sustainable paths to peace.

Peacebuilding is about addressing the underlying causes of conflict. It helps people to resolve their differences without resorting to violence.

Peacebuilding comes in many forms. We design our work alongside our partners, to make sure everything we do is tailored specifically to the context, and is based on decades of experience and research about what works. Explore what our work looks like in practice.

Our staff and partners draw on decades of experience, understanding and analysis to make peace possible. As well as news, see their latest thoughtful insights covering violent conflict, peacebuilding, and global events.
