Peace Programs
Join Us and Wage Peace in the World
Since its founding, The Carter Center has sought to wage peace and build hope through the mediation and prevention of conflicts and the promotion of democracy, human rights, and the rule of law. Our peace programs use data to inform our work and specifically focus on locally led development, gender and inclusion, and addressing the effects of climate change.
