The fireside conversation

What can we make possible together?

AI labs are invited to learn and contribute alongside the people doing the work. Stories and field reports will open a conversation about AI’s possibilities, limitations, and responsibilities in advancing peace. We’ll close with concrete opportunities to contribute.

Making peace visible

What happened, what changed, and what stories deserve to travel?

Making peace connected

How are relationships opening pathways for knowledge, resources, and support?

Making peace consequential

What is making a practical difference, and where can AI help?

Making peace generative

What have we learned, and what can we carry forward together?

Intelligence in service to life.

Begin with the children. Build on what we learn together.

AI for Peace brings peacebuilders, communities, and people working with AI into a shared exploration: how can our combined capabilities support the people who need care most? The summit is an invitation to listen, learn, and identify practical opportunities to contribute.

“The collective win is peace. The deeper possibility is intelligence—human and artificial—in service to life.”

An Indigenous call to the human family

AI must choose life.

Hereditary Chief Phil Lane Jr., Chairman of Compassion Games: Survival of the Kindest, calls upon the world’s frontier AI laboratories, their leaders and investors—and all of humanity—to make a defining choice: place our most powerful intelligence in service to life.

“War solves absolutely nothing. Let us put our most capable intelligence to work for peace.”

The invitation

What will your intelligence choose to serve?

September 11–21, 2026, we invite frontier AI laboratories, technologists, investors, peacemakers, Indigenous leaders, and communities everywhere to place intelligence in service to life.

Three foundations

Working together for peace

Compassion, the science of cooperation, and lived experience help turn shared concern into coordinated care.

Compassion GamesCompassion GamesSurvival of the Kindest

Compassion in action

The playing field

Invites people and communities to turn care into practical action and become better collaborators.

ProSocial World

Science of cooperation

The operating system

Provides evidence-based practices for working across differences and governing shared resources.

Wisdom & real-world tests

The purpose & wisdom

Keeps the work grounded in human experience, local knowledge, community consent, and measurable benefit.

Peacemakers and humanitarian leaders connected through a living network of shared intelligence

The collective multiplier

What does shared intelligence look like when it begins to work?

It helps the peace ecosystem see itself—and discover what becomes possible when distinct capabilities are connected around a shared purpose.

Using Israel–Palestine and Gaza as an initial example, the Peace Synergy Dossier maps 21 peacebuilding and humanitarian organizations and reveals potential connections across children’s health and recovery, shared-society leadership, humanitarian action, and ecological peacebuilding.

This is an early demonstration of the collective multiplier: how shared intelligence can make existing efforts more visible, connected, consequential, and generative.

A working draft for exploration, validation, and collaboration. The proposed connections are possibilities to examine with the people doing the work—not commitments already made by the named organizations.

From demonstration to enduring capacity

One shared future

Gather on September 21. Carry forward what we learn together.

September 11–21, 2026

Eleven Days to Prove Peace Is Possible

The collective learning that informs the summit.

11 Days to Prove Peace Is Possible, September 11–21, brings people together through conversations, practical missions, and shared reflection. The summit draws on that exploration to consider what is useful, what we are learning, and how to support peacebuilding next. The wider aspiration remains a world where ceasefire, nonviolence, and care become lived realities.

A global ceasefire and day of nonviolence remains our shared aspiration.

Every life protected is a victory.

Every conflict paused is a victory.

Every humanitarian corridor opened is a victory.

Every act of reconciliation is a victory.

A core team for cooperation

Different strengths. One collective win.

Compassion Games supports compassionate action and collaboration.

ProSocial World works with the core team to shape the strategy, structure, and conditions for successful cooperation.

Peacemakers, Indigenous leaders, and affected communities ground the work in lived experience, wisdom, and what peace requires.

Frontier AI laboratories are invited to contribute their technology, talent, resources, and reach.

Everyone is welcome. No previous participation is needed.
