OUR MISSION

TransformingPeaceEngagements

The Principles for Peace Foundation (P4P) is a standard-setting organisation, we unite 120+ organisations  promoting a unity of vision for peacemaking at global, regional and local levels.

Our mission is to transform peace engagements by integrating policy and practice to achieve more effective and lasting peace–locally grounded and internationally guaranteed.

Our thinking and action are guided by our eight principles for peace, a reference framework designed to create the conditions for lasting positive change, accountable security, and legitimacy, measurable in the well-being and prosperity of societies we serve.

Our vision is a world where peace engagements are both lasting and impactful.

OUR ADDED VALUE

Creating a Common Framework

The peacemaking ecosystem lacks a common framework for action and a benchmark for measuring progress. Without a methodology, it is difficult to assess the quality of peace engagements and track progress systematically across different contexts.

The principles for peace offer a measurement framework and a feedback loop mechanism to assess the quality and trajectory of peace engagements. They serve as a comprehensive guide, providing common metrics and adaptable strategies tailored to country and partner specific needs. They function as both diagnostic and accountability tools, enabling effective assessment, planning, and action across the peace sector.
