Welcome to the Culture of Peace Initiative (CPI)
The Culture of Peace Initiative (CPI) is a co-operative Peacebuilding Initiative to unite the strengths of existing organizations, projects and peoples in building a Culture of Peace for future generations. CPI serves as a vehicle for bringing to light the previously unseen and unheard Peacebuilders working towards Peace along diverse pathways.
Established in 1983, CPI enables global Peacebuilders to instantly network, share inspiration, discuss ideas, and collaborate on projects and events. Working in partnership with the United Nations, non-governmental organizations, local communities, grassroots organizers, and individuals, CPI unites our voices into a powerful worldwide movement for peace.
Your CPI Web site now offers more ways to connect with other Peacebuilders around the world. Read our new Quick Guide to CPI, sign up below, and get started today!
We are presently offering high profile pro-bono opportunities to skilled Internet technicians, television producers, public relations and promotions firms, and entertainment attorneys.
Sponsorship proposals are available for philanthropists, foundations and corporations interested in funding this historic celebration.
Your support of Peace Day will promote the ongoing efforts of thousands of organizations around the world working for peace, human rights, development and environmental sustainability. Through your generosity, the international community will recognize your leadership in creating a Culture of Peace. Sponsorships are tax-deductible through the Unity Foundation’s fiscal sponsor, the Agape Foundation.
