THOUGHT LEADERSHIP

IPSI strives through our programming to be innovative leaders in the peace and security field. We coordinate meetings of great minds on key topics at Peace & Security Symposiums and in Washington, D.C. to spark innovative ideas. We provide consulting and training services for Peace & Security experts and organizations. We also conduct public outreach through a weekly Peace & Security Report e-brief distributed to alumni, prospective students, and interested parties.

Values

IPSI is predicated on five core values:

That pragmatic solutions exist to all violent conflicts irrespective of complexity or scale.
That the next generation of global peace and security leaders must be educated in the arts of negotiation, mediation, and conflict resolution to address violent conflict at all levels of society.
That the most effective way to educate future leaders to tackle the momentous global issues on the horizon is through intensive trainings in core theory and practice led by the peace and security field’s current leaders.
That IPSI alumni who creatively address primary drivers of conflict through new and pioneering ideas should be nurtured, supported, and learned from.
That peace and security leaders must free themselves from grant dependency through incorporating aspects of social entrepreneurship in their ventures.
