We advance peace and stability by expanding education—especially for youth and women—promoting peace through dialogue and mutual understanding, and treating clean water, food sustainability, and basic resources as stability issues. We combat hate and violence by strengthening people and communities early.
A world where misinformation and dehumanization fail to recruit; where communities have the tools, opportunity, and leadership to choose stability over violence; and where peace is built through knowledge, dialogue, and resilience.
We’re built to deliver—research, briefs, reports, and public education that people can actually use, not slogans that disappear after a campaign.
The fellowship is our backbone. It’s how we scale impact without losing quality—training people and producing real work at the same time.
We don’t take political sides. We take human dignity seriously—and we build prevention through education, dialogue, and resilience.
Rise to Peace was founded by Ahmad Shah Mohibi. He grew up in war and learned early that violence doesn’t start with a weapon—it starts when people lose opportunity, lose trust, and lose access to truth. Later, through frontline public-service experience and close work with practitioners handling violence after the fact, the same lesson held: prevention wins. This organization exists to do prevention at scale—through the way of the word over the way of the gun.
Since 2017, we’ve trained 600+ fellows and interns from 34 countries. Fellows learn research, writing, responsible digital engagement, and execution— while producing publications, supporting convenings, and strengthening public education.

Our model connects people across regions, disciplines, and time zones—students, researchers, journalists, and practitioners—working toward one mission. It’s how we scale consistency across publications, convenings, and public awareness.
