Seeds of Peace

 

Our mission is to empower leaders of the next generation. Treaties are negotiated by governments. Peace is made by people. Seeds of Peace is doing what no government can. It is sowing the seeds of peace among the next generation of leaders. It is educating them to develop empathy, respect and confidence. It is equipping them with communication and negotiation skills. It is enabling them to see the human face of their enemies. By empowering them to emerge as tomorrow’s leaders, Seeds of Peace is working to forge the personal relationships so critical to peacemaking and reconciliation.

There are nearly 4,000 young Seeds of Peace leaders making a positive difference in some of the most difficult conflict regions of the world. We aim to support them in their development as peacemakers. Our International Advisory Board members are U.S President George H.W. Bush, U.S. President William Jefferson Clinton, Her Majesty Queen Noor of Jordan, Israeli President Shimon Peres, and Chief Palestinian Negotiator Dr. Sa’eb Erekat. Nevertheless, the overwhelming majority of support for our programs comes from individual supporters. Please take a moment to learn more about our programs. Read More.
