Mission Statement
Sustainable Peace Foundation (SPF) is an Iraqi Non-governmental Organisation (NGO) founded in 2019. We strive to build and sustain peace through vertical and horizontal participatory methods and grassroot approaches; to reinstate and strengthen lost trust between Iraq’s ethno-religious communities and diverse social groups; empower and build the capacities of the very effected communities, with a centripetal focus on marginalised groups of Iraq’s social fabric - such as women and girls, youth and minorities: so they can reduce social tensions, mitigate and transform conflicts through dialogue and non-violent means.
SPF develops, designs and implements programming in social cohesion, peacebuilding and other cross-cutting areas, such as climate change and environmental justice, peace journalism and restorative justice through integrated approaches and interventions, without losing focus of our primary goals and objectives.
For more details about our mission and vision, please refer to our three-year strategy.

“By peace we mean the capacity to transform conflicts with empathy, without violence and creatively - a never-ending process.”
