Making Peace Possible
Transformative Peace leverages our regional expertise and our deep experience with international conflict to design unique conflict resolution programs and peacemaking systems on behalf of communities navigating the challenges of change.
We utilize a progressive, adaptable approach to peacebuilding, customizing programs to meet the particular demands of a given dispute.
We believe in working closely with all stakeholders in a given society, and consider it paramount to build bridges of understanding between all levels of society; from the highest levels of government across to the next generation of grassroots activism.
