Building the knowledge, partnerships, and next generation of leaders that more peaceful societies require.
As NYU's home for peace and violence-prevention-focused inquiry, learning, and action, we work with partners in more than 11 countries across three interconnected pillars to build peace and prevent violence.
-
We accompany university partners as they design and deliver formal and informal Peace Studies programs, building their capacity to serve as peacebuilding institutions in their own societies.
-
We work to ensure AI and emerging technologies serve as catalysts for peace, building peacebuilding principles into their design and oversight from the outset while confronting the structural violence these systems can produce.
-
We develop evidence-based tools and guidance to support governments, the United Nations, and international financial institutions in adopting violence prevention and peacebuilding policy that works in practice.
