Intergenerational stewardship,

Teams connecting
teams.
Within Compassion Games: Survival of the Kindest, the AI for Peace team helps connect people, knowledge, and resources around two initiatives: Student Bridges and Amazon connectivity.
Student Bridges connects three founding teams supporting young people in Gaza, Ukraine, and East Africa. In the Amazon, 4rest4all works alongside Indigenous community teams to expand connectivity for learning, health, communication, and forest protection. Each team shapes its own participation and priorities.

The AI for Peace approach
Intelligence in service
to life.
The AI for Peace team explores how AI can help us become more capable as individuals and more effective together. We begin with a human purpose: helping people understand, choose, and act with care.
AI for Me
Use AI to clarify a question, explore possibilities, learn, and prepare a contribution. Good assistance strengthens your understanding and judgment, so you can choose your next step.
AI for We
Use AI within a shared process to understand different perspectives, communicate across languages, and coordinate care. Teams agree how to participate, check what AI produces, and decide together, with room for difference.
From personal insight to shared care.
In Student Bridges, we are exploring how AI can help students prepare and communicate across languages, and help teams connect needs with offers of support. We learn from each exchange and improve together.
People guide decisions and make commitments. Young people help shape the work; adults remain responsible for consent, privacy, translation review, and follow-through.
The story we carry forward
Rooted in compassion.
Growing through cooperation.
Student Bridges grows from the September 2026 AI for Peace Fireside Summit and 11 Days to Prove Peace Is Possible. Compassion Games, the science of cooperation, and Indigenous wisdom ground the wider work.
“War solves absolutely nothing. Let us put our most capable intelligence to work for peace.”
