The Eirene Peacebuilding Database™ is a comprehensive collection of 3,381 indicators from 2,008 publicly available peacebuilding resources.

It is the culmination of nearly two years of work to search, catalog, curate, and share peacebuilding key indicators that will help you all better assess your work and measure impact. It puts forward program approaches, indicators, and measures currently being used in peacebuilding across seven program areas: Social Cohesion; Governance; Violence Reduction; Dispute Resolution; Perceptions of Safety & Security; Resilience; and Trust.

Smart Peace is an initiative of Conciliation Resources.

Smart Peace has launched a series of guides introducing the various Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning methods utilized over the course of this ground-breaking project on innovative peacebuilding.

The International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie) is a global leader in funding, producing, quality assuring and synthesising rigorous evidence. We support studies and reviews that examine what works, for whom, why and at what cost in low- and middle-income countries (L&MICs). We are also a global advocate for the generation and use of quality evidence in development decision-making.

In 2020 they published Building peaceful societies: an evidence gap map.

The Everyday Peace Indicators research approach investigates alternative, bottom-up indicators of peace and how such bottom-up information can be meaningfully integrated into policy processes. The approach employs an inductive, participatory approach to the generation of indicators in order to measure difficult-to-measure concepts such as peace. Taking its cue from studies in sustainable development, the research approach asks community members to identify their own measures of peace. The EPI approach is based on the premise that local communities are best placed to identify changes in their own circumstances, rather than relying on external ‘experts’ to identify indicators for them.
