The Global Peace Hub

In April 2021, the Swedish Development Forum, FUF, started the Global Peace Hub (GPH) – a digital and international network for young peacebuilders. In February 2024, the network was closed due to a lack of funding.

Lining up with UN Security Council Resolution 2250 on Youth, Peace, and Security (YPS) and Agenda 2030, the purpose of the GPH was to unite youth for greater global-level cohesion among youth, increasing their ability to influence democratic- and peace- promoting processes, and heighten their advocacy. The mission was to strengthen their networks and skills, to foster new partnerships and collaborations, and support youth leadership worldwide.

When the network was active, it was funded by The Folke Bernadotte Academy, the Swedish agency for peace, security and development, until the agency terminated their support to civil society organizations.
