Saferworld is an independent international organisation working to prevent violent conflict and build safer lives. We work with people affected by conflict to improve their safety and sense of security, supported by wider research and analysis. We use this evidence and learning to improve local, national and international policies and practices that can help build lasting peace. Our priority is people – we believe in a world where everyone can lead peaceful, fulfilling lives, free from fear and insecurity. We are a not-for-profit organization operational in 10 countries across Africa, Asia and the Middle East and policy and advocacy centers in London, Brussels and Washington, D.C.

Under our 2021-2031 Strategic Plan of working in solidarity for a safer world, we:

  • Work for conflict transformation and political transitions rooted in equality and justice, and built on inclusive institutions and processes;
  • Drive momentum to put people at the heart of ‘security’ everywhere;
  • Challenge and transform the gender norms that drive violent conflict and gender-based violence, and support the leadership of women and girls in peacebuilding;
  • Contribute to redesigning the way international institutions and systems engage in conflict-affected places and work with peacebuilders and decision-makers to create humanitarian, peace and development systems that prevent and transform violent conflict;
  • Provide conflict and peacebuilding expertise to support urgent solutions to the combined threats of the climate crisis, conflict and environmental degradation Peace rooted in gender equality requires.

Our vision

We believe in a world where everyone can lead peaceful, fulfilling lives, free from fear and insecurity.

Our mission

We work to prevent violent conflict and build safer lives. We work to create environments where the following three conditions for peace are in place:

  • People play an active role in preventing and transforming conflict and building peace.
  • People have access to fair and effective paths to address the grievances and inequalities that drive conflict.
  • People with influence exercise their power to promote just and equitable societies.
