As we reflect on the past year, we find ourselves facing an unprecedented convergence of challenges – armed conflicts that threaten communities, a climate crisis that endangers our shared future and the deepening fragmentation of societies across the world. These crises test our resolve, but they also reaffirm the urgent need for peacebuilding, dialogue and collective action.

At Interpeace, we remain steadfast in our mission to foster understanding, bridge divides and cultivate sustainable solutions. Through our work, we have witnessed firsthand the power of communities coming together – whether in conflict zones striving for reconciliation, climate-affected regions adapting with resilience or divided societies finding paths to solidarity. This Annual Report highlights our progress, the voices of those impacted and the road ahead. In 2024, we achieved great impacts in advancing our 2021-2025 Strategy “A Resilient Peace”, with efforts focused on three specific aims: Rethinking Peace, Enhancing Resilience for Peace and Embedding and Institutionalising Peace.

In these uncertain times, peace is not just the absence of conflict; it is the presence of justice, cooperation and shared responsibility. We extend our deepest gratitude to all who walk this path with us – partners, supporters and courageous individuals who believe in the possibility of a better world.

Together, we carry forward the commitment to building peace, restoring hope and shaping a future that belongs to all.

With resolve and appreciation,
