The Heravi Peace Institute aims to be a transformative catalyst for peace.
The Heravi Peace Institute empowers USU students, faculty, and staff by cultivating the necessary character, knowledge, and skills to constructively transform conflict and build peace. Leveraging research, teaching, praxis, and community engagement, we develop and equip peacebuilders for today's world.
The world needs more people committed to creating peace, and we aim to empower students with the temperamentand tools needed to bring about social change. The Heravi Peace Institute at Utah State University prepares students to enter the workforce already adept at cultural peacebuilding, conflict management, nonprofit work, empowered to create intentional relationships and ready to enact change in their communities.
Housed in the College of Arts & Sciences, HPI is an academic program that supports student internships and other experiential learning, faculty and student research activities, and ongoing programming and public outreach in the field of peacebuilding through the proactive implementation of skills in a variety of settings and institutions to practice nonviolent collaboration and transformative conflict at the personal, interpersonal, family, community, intergroup, national, and international levels.
