On April 22 we hosted the annual Women Peacemakers event. The four Peacemakers shared their experiences about being at the forefront of building peace and advancing justice worldwide.
Together with local women peacebuilders and renowned international women, peace and security organizations, the Kroc IPJ identifies the most critical peacebuilding challenges facing women leaders around the world. We then co-develop applied and actionable research to identify evidence-based solutions.
We ground-truth these solutions through our expansive global network of women peacemakers. It's these powerful solutions that drive progress to end cycles of violence and create lasting systemic change.
With immense gratitude we spotlight the donors who generously support this work:

About the Author
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.
