Welcome to PeaceFinance.org — the new home for peace-positive finance
This site was created to give finance and peace a shared platform. Around the world, fragile and conflict-affected settings remain underfunded and overlooked. Yet they are also places of enormous resilience, innovation, and opportunity. We believe finance can do more than avoid risk — it can actively contribute to peace. PeaceFinance.org is here to show how.
Why peace finance matters now
Billions flow into development, humanitarian aid, and impact investing every year. But too often, fragile markets remain outside the scope of investors because of perceived risks and a lack of credible tools. Without a peace-positive lens, capital can even deepen exclusion or fuel fragility. Peace finance provides a practical way to change that — offering standards, tools, and a common language to guide investment toward outcomes that reduce conflict drivers, foster inclusion, and build trust.
What you will find here
This platform brings together the essential resources for peace-positive investment. Explore the Peace Finance Standard, practical templates, case studies, and Peace Enhancing Mechanisms (PEMs). Learn from real initiatives like PeaceGold, the HDP Outcomes Fund, and the Orange Peace Bond. The site will grow as a hub for updates, thought pieces, and spotlight initiatives — making peace finance tangible and actionable.
Start learning with the E-Hub
PeaceFinance.org links directly to the Peace Finance E-Hub, an online learning space offering a foundational course, workshops, and tools. The E-Hub is designed for investors, development partners, peacebuilders, and anyone curious about how finance can be aligned with peace outcomes. It’s practical, accessible, and meant to help you take the first steps from principles to practice.
Who we are — and who we seek
Behind this site is a team of Peace finance experts and partners across the peacebuilding, development, and finance fields. But this is not a one-way broadcast. PeaceFinance.org is meant to be a living platform, shaped by contributions, case stories, and collaboration. We are looking for partners — from DFIs and foundations to practitioners and researchers — to co-create this space and help expand the field of peace finance.
Join us in building the field
Peace finance is not just an idea; it is a movement that is already taking shape. By joining, sharing, and experimenting, you help strengthen the credibility and impact of this work. Explore the site, try the E-Hub, and sign up for our workshops. Reach out if you have a story, a tool, or an initiative to showcase. Together, we can unlock capital for peace and build markets that are more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable.
