A Peacebright Conference

Oct 21-22, 2026: 10a.m-4p.m.

The annual Peacebright Conference connects peace practitioners and peace research scholars in a forward-thinking synergy, to unpack, dissect, analyze and create innovative ways of resolving outstanding conflicts and build sustainable peace. The Peacebright Conference is an ideas-driven convention, bringing together leaders, scholars, civil society, and the private sector to examine how peace is built—and rebuilt—in a fractured global environment. Timed with UN Day, the conference will move beyond rhetoric to explore practical pathways for dialogue, cooperation, and leadership in an era marked by polarization, conflict, and institutional fatigue.

The topic: Building an Architecture of Peace. Speaker profiles welcome to this conference are eminent scholars, policy makers, junior scholars, civil society leaders, law enforcement officials, legal professionals, and the next generation of thinkers and strategists.

Individual Speakers & Panel registrations: no later than July 31, 2026.

Abstracts submission: Aug 31, 2026.

Complete papers submission, when selected: Sept Oct 1, 2026.

The conference papers are set to be published digitally in The Peacebright Journal, and to be edited by a committee of senior scholars and professionals.
