Maison de la paix
Geneva Peace Week is a leading annual forum in the international peacebuilding calendar in which organizations in Geneva and their international partners come together to share knowledge and practice on a diverse range of topics relating to the promotion of peace across contexts and disciplines.
Geneva Peace Week 2022 will take place both in-person and also online from 31 October to 4 November 2022. GPW seeks to create an increased number of spaces for physical, in-person meetings for professionals who are able to attend in Geneva. As the Geneva Peace Week brings together citizens and experts, thinkers and doers to share experiences, build knowledge and expertise, and empower everyone to work collectively towards peace, the opening and closing ceremonies of GPW are open to the general public and welcome everyone, on-site in Geneva.
The overarching theme of GPW22 is ‘Peace is Possible'.
The Online & In-person Workshops and Digital Series for Geneva Peace Week 2022 have been organized into four thematic tracks. There will be daily High-Level Panels held for each of the thematic tracks below, open to the public.
In addition, each day of the week is dedicated to a specific thematic track. You can learn more about the daily thematic tracks here.
Throughout the week, each day will have its own High-Level Panel. You can register for the daily High-Level Panels here.
High Level Panel on: Cultivating Cooperation: Environmental challenges and opportunities for peace in a new age of insecurity.
High Level Panel on: Digital peace: The power and limits of innovation in peacebuilding
High Level Panel on: Rights, inequalities and peace: Navigating tensions, finding opportunities
High Level Panel on: Moving beyond securitization: Risk management and new horizons for peacebuilding
Geneva Peace Week 2022 opens with an entire day of conversations through High-Level Panels exploring different facets of one overarching question: Is peace possible.
Geneva Peace Week 2022 features a dynamic lineup of Online and In-person Workshops for all attendees to join, from 31 October - 4 November. The Workshops will be practitioner-led, including inputs from speakers who are working on the relevant topics.
The Workshops have also been designed to be interactive, with the aim of offering attendees the opportunity to exchange and share knowledge, good practice, and peacebuilding skills to apply in their daily work.
