negative and positive peace
_ peace is the absense of violence
+ attitudes, structures creating sustaining peaceful societies
Global peace index
how to measure ?
23 indicators: 6 international domectics, 10 societal safety and security, 7 militarisations
police : internal regulation
military: external regulation
2023 deterioration of the peace index, 13th time in last 16 years
IEP works with existing databases and definitions of terms (terrorism, conflict, stability ... )
most databases are open
ixed with internal accounts/ datamixed data, external observations m
country based evaluations, not organisation based
Aim is to make countries more peaceful (...)
economic valua of peace (.....)

8 pilars:
well functioning governement
equitable distribution of resources
free flow of

anti corruption index
sound business environment
-> peace is depicted in the middle

ranking and quantifications are maybe less what we need,
-> see recording (?)
ok, continuation of more slides ......
how can this model be used ?
