Welcome to the Community of Practice “Peace”!
In an increasingly interconnected yet challenged world, peace is not just an ideal but an essential foundation for sustainable development, social cohesion, and resilient societies. At the CSR Dialogue Forum — a United Nations-accredited competence centre for sustainability and responsible action — we recognize that peace is deeply linked with our collective ability to address global challenges such as conflict, inequality, and environmental degradation.

Our Community of Practice “Peace” brings together change-makers, practitioners, and thought leaders from business, civil society, academia, and the public sector who share a commitment to dialogue, understanding, and collaborative action. Here, peace isn’t treated as an abstract concept but as a practical and achievable goal, rooted in shared values, mutual respect, and systems-thinking approaches that align with the vision of sustainable societies. Whether through peacebuilding initiatives, interdisciplinary exchange, or joint exploratory projects, we work to bridge perspectives and build pathways toward peaceful coexistence and conflict transformation.

This community offers a space for knowledge exchange, reflective discussion, and co-creative learning: How can business practices contribute to peace and social stability? What roles do dialogue, mediation, and inclusive engagement play in organisational and societal transformation? What concrete actions can support sustained peace in local and global contexts? Guided by the ethos of cooperation and innovation central to the CSR Dialogue Forum, we cultivate a shared platform where diverse experiences, insights, and solutions converge.

Join us in shaping a community that values empathy, fosters constructive dialogue, and strengthens collective efforts toward peace and sustainable futures — because without peace, economic, social, and ecological sustainability cannot be fully realised.
