This is the 20th edition of the Global Peace Index, which ranks 163 independent states and territories according to their level of peacefulness, covering 99.7% of the world’s population. Produced by the IEP, the Index is the world’s leading measure of global peacefulness. The GPI presents the most comprehensive data-driven analysis to date on trends in peace, its economic value, and how to develop peaceful societies. It uses 23 qualitative and quantitative indicators to measure the state of peace across three domains: the level of Societal Safety and Security; the extent of Ongoing Domestic and International Conflict; and the degree of Militarisation. Participation in this event is by invitation only.
