On any given day, a third of U.S. Institute of Peace experts are deployed, deploying or returning from active conflict zones. They conduct training and research and provide analysis and resources to partners in conflict zones and in Washington D.C., working with government and civil society across the globe. They specialize in many of the world’s violent conflicts and in issues such as the role of religion, countering violent extremism, advancing rule of law, electoral violence, governance, peace processes and the use of technology in peace and conflict.
