The European Institute of Peace is based in Brussels and active in over a dozen countries in the Middle East, Central Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe.

Examples of the Institute’s work include supporting marginalised groups and women to engage in dialogue in Yemen; empowering the voices of Syrian refugees and internally displaced persons to influence European and others’ political engagement; providing technical assistance to national peace authorities in Afghanistan; sharing lessons from the peace process in Colombia.

The Institute’s purpose is to strengthen approaches to conflict resolution wherever it is needed in the world – and to implement initiatives intended to contribute to lasting peace agreements – which means ensuring that peace agreements address human security and are designed to deliver meaningful dividends. .
