A Community of Learning

The Global Campus offers more than just courses. We prioritize engaging with and learning from others in conflict-affected areas in an effort to help students think about conflict in new and diverse ways to change attitudes and behaviors. Connect with peacebuilders around the globe using discussion boards and groups. You can chat, share resources, and network with others in the Global Campus. 

Student-Centered Opportunities

All of our courses, workshops and trainings reflect the principle that all participants have valuable experiences and perspectives to share. Our instructors and trainers facilitate an elicitive learning process that enables students to share with and learn from each other.

Simulations and Problem-solving Scenarios

Interactive tools give participants the opportunity to apply knowledge to real-world contexts and generate a deeper understanding of the content. We draw our lessons from our experience on the ground, so our tools provide tangible benefits to our students. 

About USIP

The United States Institute of Peace is a national, nonpartisan, independent institute, founded by Congress and dedicated to the proposition that a world without violent conflict is possible, practical and essential for U.S. and global security. In conflict zones abroad, the Institute works with local partners to prevent, mitigate, and resolve violent conflict. To reduce future crises and the need for costly interventions, USIP works with governments and civil societies to build local capacities to manage conflict peacefully. The Institute pursues its mission by linking research, policy, training, analysis and direct action to support those who are working to build a more peaceful, inclusive world.
