Integral Peace Leadership

A space for cultivating sustainable, personal peace practices, which enable us to know and appreciate ourselves with the flexibility to adapt and grow. Innerwork is found by enacting love, empathy, compassion, forgiveness, and respect for self and others and may include practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and personal wellness, including psychological and trauma healing.

A space that informs peace leaders to work with others. It involves an in-depth understanding of the contextual realities of a situation and is enacted by engaging in conflict transformation practices, such as dialogue, listening, negotiation, mediation, and reconciliation. This space also serves to create positive peace actions through initiatives such as education, storytelling, and grassroots efforts.

A space for creating collaborative peacebuilding efforts and repairing community harm. Rooted in locally driven change, the community space relies on social and human capital to create a space of solidarity and inclusivity. Utilizing capacity and coalition building, this community area creates space for collective action for peaceful transformation.

A space to address deficient systems and structures and create a culture of peace. It involves understanding the inherent complexity and distributed nature of systems-level work. Utilizing tools such as advocacy, activism, and networking, peace leaders tap into resources, financial and beyond, to foster equity and justice for the planet and all its diverse global peoples.
