Conflict is natural, but violence can be avoided.

Fund for Peace works tirelessly to better understand underlying conflict drivers and to help practitioners devise practical and impactful ways to respond, to prevent conflict turning into violence. To do this:

We develop innovative data platforms to provide policy-makers and practitioners with the tools to respond effectively to conflict situations. We train policy-makers, practitioners and communities on conflict assessment methodologies to ensure they are well-prepared to effectively respond to conflict and crisis.
We bring together diverse stakeholders to engage on sensitive issues and develop collective, sustainable responses. We work with investors and companies to ensure that security forces are deployed to commercial projects in a responsible manner that respects the safety of communities.
We develop and deliver human rights training programs to security forces to ensure they understand their responsibility to protect and respect the rights of communities. We support local communities to help ensure that they can exercise their democratic rights in elections free of violence.
We develop, train and support observatories to help local communities to better recognize and prevent violence against women and girls. We research criminal and terrorist networks to map illicit trading routes and help authorities prevent dangerous materials from falling into the wrong hands.
