Rise to Peace Revenue and Competitors

Mission A non-profit focused on empowering peace, education and tolerance to prevent terrorism and extremism around the world. Vision Through intelligent research, we aim to inform programs and policies to help steer vulnerable people away from violent extremism and towards an education that empowers the individual, supports diversity, and builds a path of tolerance and hope. Strategic Framework Rise to Peace pursues its vision, working in conflict zones with local partners to provide actionable information, sharp analysis and educational tools to help counter violent extremism, and shape policies that will build a more peaceful world. Rise to Peace seeks to provide independent analyses and policy recommendations to counter and prevent violent extremism and mitigate deadly conflicts. We combine field research, analysis and collaborative discussions and present our findings with policymakers around the world in order to promote peace, education and tolerance and security worldwide. Rise to Peace (R2P) seeks to fulfill its mission with a series of educational efforts. The foundation of these efforts is the “Interview Project,” in which we personally interview young people who formerly embraced extremist ideology and became misguided foot soldiers for groups such as the Taliban, al-Shabaab and ISIS – we travel around the globe to conduct these interviews and understand how these youngsters were recruited by these groups and what eventually enabled them to break the chains of extremism.
