تعرف علينا
The Cordoba Peace Institute – Geneva (CPI) is an independent non-profit organisation, working on violence prevention and peace promotion. We aim to enhance theoretical and practical conflict transformation resources, using our unique expertise in Islam and conflict transformation. We promote a methodology adapted to and accepted by local communities, conflict parties and peace actors. Since 2002, we have developed unique access and networks in the countries where we work and have Special Consultative Status with the United Nations.
The identity of our Institute is linked to the Andalusian city of Cordoba: a renowned medieval centre of inter-faith cultural, intellectual and linguistic cross-fertilisation, and with Geneva: a modern centre of international dialogue and exchange between peoples.
