From local roots to global peace - communities everywhere can grow hope for generations to come.
Our Mission
Rooted in the vision of Peace Through Agriculture (Pax Agricultura), our mission is to restore the earth, rebuild livelihoods, and expand food security by supporting farmers and communities in regions impacted by war, climate crises, and economic insecurity.
We plant seeds of hope through regenerative agriculture, education, and global collaboration—uniting local and international farming communities to heal both soil and soul and cultivate lasting peace across our shared world.
Three Core Initiatives
-
Expanding Food Security Through Global Gardens
Our Global Gardens for Food Security program plants seeds of hope in vulnerable communities worldwide. Through hands-on agricultural training and climate-resilient food systems, we empower families to grow their own nourishment, strengthen local economies, and rebuild their futures from the ground up.
Our Global Gardens model works to:
Increase food security through regenerative, climate-smart agriculture.
- Train farmers and families in sustainable growing practices that restore soil health.
- Support economic recovery by helping communities grow, harvest, and market nutritious crops.
- Improve nutrition and well-being with diversified, locally grown foods.
- Build local leadership by empowering women, youth, and community groups.
- Promote stability and peace by restoring land and livelihoods in high-risk regions.
Together, these gardens become living classrooms—cultivating nourishment, dignity, and long-term resilience.
-
Advancing Global Thought Leadership and Research
Peace grows from knowledge, collaboration, and shared leadership. Through partnerships with world-renowned universities—including UC Berkeley Kühn Institute for Post Conflict Development—we advance research and thought leadership in post-conflict development, regenerative agriculture, peacebuilding, and food security.
Our research and convening efforts work to:
- Advance interdisciplinary research on agriculture, demilitarization, and economic recovery in post-conflict and climate-affected regions.
- Strengthen global collaboration among universities, policymakers, NGOs, and farming communities.
- Develop innovative solutions that support food security and climate resilience.
- Cultivate emerging leaders through education, exchange, and applied research.
- Bridge research with real-world impact to support farmers and communities on the ground.
Peace Through Agriculture Forums
- Annual Peace Through Agriculture Forum — a global convening of leaders in peacebuilding, agriculture, climate resilience, and sustainable development.
- Quarterly Strategic Small Gatherings — intimate dialogues among Consul Corps, universities, NGOs, and corporations to spark innovation and shared learning.
Together, these platforms advance our mission by connecting research, leadership, and community empowerment to cultivate peace through agriculture worldwide.

Championing Women in Agriculture — Rooted in Regeneration
Women are the heart of agriculture and the stewards of peace. Through interviews, podcasts, and public symposiums, we shine a light on the vital role women play in cultivating both the soil and the soul of our planet. By uplifting women’s voices and stories, we honor their impact and inspire others to follow their lead in nurturing peace from the ground up.
2026 marks the United Nations Year of the Woman Farmer.Our Women in Agriculture initiative works to:
- Highlight women’s leadership in regenerative agriculture, food security, and climate resilience.
- Amplify women’s stories through interviews, podcasts, and public dialogues.
- Champion women farmers as essential agents of peace, stability, and community regeneration.
- Promote global recognition for women who restore land and livelihoods in high-risk regions.
- Inspire the next generation by showcasing women-led innovation and agricultural wisdom.
Together, these efforts celebrate and elevate the women cultivating regeneration, resilience, and peace across our shared world.
We see a world where peace takes root.
