Everyone has the Power of Peacetech.
We believe everyone has the power of peacetech so we leverage low-cost, easy-to-use tech and local partnerships to put the right tools in the hands of the people best positioned to make a difference: activists, peacebuilders, and NGOs in some of the most violent places on earth.
Our work takes many forms. From our headquarters in Washington D.C., we run a PeaceTech Accelerator for startups using technological innovation to do everything from connecting at-risk youth across Africa with jobs to warning civilians in Syria of incoming missile attacks. In places like India, Kenya, Iraq, Myanmar, Costa Rica, and Nigeria, our PeaceTech Exchanges offer training and affordable tech tools to peacebuilders in communities around the world. And on the data front, our research around issues like social media and hate speech serve to inform policymakers, data scientists, activists, and business leaders while also providing a foundation for predictive analytics and a proprietary platform for early warning of violence. We partnered with Drexel University to launch the U.S.’s first Master’s Degree in Peace Engineering to educate generation after generation on the power of peacetech.

MEMBERS MOMENT | Lebanese American Chamber of Commerce Members Hanan Skaf (102.3FM CINA Radio/شو الأخبار ويب تيفي What's Up Media Network) and Micho Assi (Michigan Department of Attorney General) pose onstage following The Road to Equal Justice Conference at Bint Jebail Cultural Center, where Micho, PeaceTech Lab project manager, served as conference co- moderator.
🗣 We are pleased to present our special issue on countering hate and violent extremism in collaboration with Thought Partnerships.
In light of the January 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol and broader rise in armed extremist groups, the Peace Science Digest editorial team was compelled to better understand the drivers of radicalization and, importantly, the nonviolent approaches to supporting deradicalization and disengagement from violent extremism.
We feature five analyses and the work of several organizations working in the field of countering hate and violent extremism, including PeaceTech Lab Beyond Conflict Protection Approaches and Moonshot.
