We are committed to encouraging people to value peace, act for peace, and celebrate peace.
Enacting Peace was founded by a meditation teacher and a former diplomat. In 2025, Enacting Peace merged with the World Upshift Organisation founded by a philosopher and a former Member of Parliament.
They have been joined by people from diverse backgrounds who share a love for peace and a belief that everyone has a role in ensuring peace. We are neither for profit or non-profit, we are for peace.
Mission and values
Our mission is to develop appreciation for peace, provide opportunities to contribute to the creation and maintenance of peace, and invite people to celebrate peace. We think that the best way to do that is to keep our project simple: we have no dogma, charge no dues and take no political positions.
We believe that peace is active, not passive and that is created and maintained by the intentions and actions of every one of us. We would like everyone to be aware of the importance of peace in their lives, and be aware of their power to make peace.
We just want people to realise that small actions for peace are truly important and should be recognized.
We believe that peace is a perquisite to resolving most issues. And peace is not the absence of conflict, but the absence of violence. Peace creates the space to resolve conflict.
