Launching Impact:Peace

Monday, August 5, 2019

2016 was the most violent year on record since World War II. To respond to the urgent need to scale up effective responses to violence, in early 2019 the University of San Diego’s Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice and the Stanley Foundation launched Impact:Peace to accelerate and amplify the most promising change processes in the Peacebuilding field through the deployment of dynamic evidence delivered at the right time to the right people.

Leading peacebuilders and violence prevention experts came together in May to provide their insights, vision and guidance to help steer this important initiative.

About the Author

Kroc School

The Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice (Kroc IPJ) launched in 2001 with a vision of active peacebuilding. In 2007, the Kroc IPJ became part of the newly established Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies, a global hub for peacebuilding and social innovation. The core of the Kroc IPJ mission is to  co-create learning with peacemakers — learning that is deeply grounded in the lived experience of peacemakers around the world, that is made rigorous by our place within a university ecosystem and that is immediately and practically applied by peacemakers to end cycles of violence.
