Promoting peaceful and inclusive societies

1. Inequalities and social justice
2. Local to global governance
3. Gender equality and minorities rights
4. Youth inclusion
5. Role of conventional arms control in preventing conflicts and building peace
6. Accountability and transitional justice

The selection committee might consider applications on topics that do not fit into these three thematic tracks. Additional topics must be relevant to peacebuilding efforts and the overarching theme of the 10-year anniversary “Building Trust, Building Peace: An Agenda for the Future”, including on the more specific themes relating to the New Agenda for Peace.

To apply, interested organisations should fill out the online application form available on our website. The deadline for applications is Sunday 4 June midnight (GMT +02:00).

Geneva Peace Week is committed to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion. We encourage international organisations, NGOs, private companies, permanent missions, academic institutions, research centres and others to apply.
