The Peace Department’s mission is to catalyze peace through sustainable development. We envision a world where the most pressing crises of our time – from armed conflict to climate change to resource scarcity and systemic inequality – are mitigated through the tightly choreographed deployment of place-based sustainable solutions that empower local communities and seed lasting peace.
Catalyzing Stability and Prosperity Through Sustainable Development
Connect. Catalyze. Convene. Collaborate
About Us
The Peace Department gathers intelligence, builds multisectoral coalitions, and works collaboratively through its networks to design and initiate place-based solutions that advance as many UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as possible in partnership with community-based organizations around the world. This approach helps to restore human dignity, empower the vulnerable and marginalized to participate in community regeneration, bridge divides through collaboration and shared purpose, and ultimately catalyze peace.
We further our mission by building coalitions, coordinating SDG-augmenting solutions, and providing catalytic strategies and capital to sustainability projects that align with our mission.
Our Impact
The Peace Department focuses on system change and project based solutions. We create opportunities to catalyze capital, maximize resources, develop long term strategies, create new models, and mobilize communities around unique initiatives tailored to each region based on their needs. We take a multifaceted approach to tackle some of the most difficult problems across the world with meaningful and long lasting outcomes.
