Global Peace is an initiative launched from the global south, by ACCORD, a Civil Society Organisation and Global Think Tank with 27 years of experience working to resolve conflicts on the continent. Through this experience, ACCORD identified that peace cannot be sustained without development. In 2018, ACCORD took the next step and is extending its experience globally through this new entity: Global Peace.
It is an ecosystem for ideas, innovators, influencers, investors and implementers to harness twenty-first century creativity and innovation to bring practical, implementable and cost-effective solutions to global challenges that have local and global consequences – as well as enhancing conflict prevention and strengthening the global multi-lateral system.
