Positive Peace Conference

The fifth Positive Peace Conference brings together diverse thought leaders from private industry, foundations, governments, and non-profit organisations to celebrate and learn from the latest advancements in the field of peacebuilding. Hosted by the international think tank, the Institute for Economics & Peace, the event is held in partnership with the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law) and represents an exceptional learning, networking, and strategic planning opportunity for those working to strengthen the attitudes, institutions and structures that create and sustain levels of peacefulness at local, regional and global levels.
