A ViSION FOR LASTING PEACE
We provide a framework for action and a benchmark for progress.
We also provide a suite of tools, diagnostics, and expert-guided strategies.
We promote coherence, transparency, and accountability in all peace efforts.
Our commitment is to:
Shift the focus
Transition from just ending violence to fostering inclusive, enduring, legitimate processes and accountable security.
Reinvent partnerships
Facilitate genuine partnerships with more humility, valuing locally led solutions over superficial collaborations, less peace architects and more midwives of peace.
Transform dynamics
Move beyond mere elite power-sharing to reshape state-society relations
Harness the principles for peace
Accompany stakeholders to tap into platforms and alliances for dialogue and course correction, assess progress against shared metrics, and navigate peacebuilding’s intricacies.
Move from policy to funding
Use our diagnostics and feedback loop to ensure accountability, monitoring, and collective action. They encapsulate accountability to taxpayers and affected communities, and effective measurements.
