WHO WE ARE
The Peace Innovation Initiative
The Peace Innovation Initiative is the new accelerator for peace practice.
Driven by our bold commitment and values, we are collectively amplifying the intersection of sustainability, innovation, technology, and those who are invested in sustainable impact.
Founded through the vision and leadership of Barbara Winston, her son Gordon Winston, and our founding partner, the UN-mandated University for Peace, PII was first presented by UN Secretary-General António Guterres as part of the University for Peace (UPEACE) report to the 76th session of the General Assembly. Our mandate was clear: to create a global practice of active peace, founded and inspired by innovation. The report subsequently received 126 co-sponsorships from Member States, a record-breaking level of support never before experienced in the University’s 42-year history.
Â
Since that time, we’ve launched a campaign to accelerate peace innovation, held various cross-sectoral convenings at the UN, and incubated a global fellowship to explore the intersections of innovation, impact, and active peace.
Our Mission
To create and enable a global practice of active peace by connecting diverse minds and enabling the exchange of knowledge and tools to launch impact-based innovations.
Our VisionÂ
A world where our global industries and investments are constructed upon a framework of sustainable peacebuilding, measurable outcomes, impact, and ROI.
Our Pillars
Health is the most basic building block of peace. Our cross-sectoral programs prioritize innovative solutions that pave the way out of poverty and curable disease.
Health & Wellbeing
Education creates opportunity. We connect innovators with the funds and global stage they need to think outside the box for the health of people and planet.
Education
The earth is our shared home. We work with global thinkers to employ innovative technologies locally, helping us transition and operate in harmony with nature.
Climate & Energy
A sustainable global ecosystem is the goal. Our shared data allows us all to scale up innovations and infrastructure for implementation in communities worldwide.
