Peace Summit

A gathering,not a gala

Before the awards comes the work: a serious annual programme of dialogue, scholarship and youth participation, concluding in the awards convocation.

Programme

Three days of substance

01

The Global Peace Dialogue

Peacebuilders, academics, humanitarian leaders, diplomats, youth, spiritual leaders and civil society in serious discussion.

02

The Sai Baba Global Peace Lecture

A respected global figure speaks for twenty to thirty minutes. Recorded and archived every Awards year.

03

The Awards Convocation

Not an awards show — a global peace convocation, where the institution honours documented service.

The Peace Lecture

An archive of ideasbuilt one year at a time

Each Peace Lecture is recorded and permanently archived. After ten years there are ten lectures; after twenty years, twenty. That becomes the institution's own intellectual history.

  • Recorded and archived in full
  • Published transcript
  • Open to scholars and students
  • Part of the permanent Peace Archive
