Positive Peace Index
The Positive Peace Index measures the state of peace within a country by evaluating the factors that support peaceful societies, such as good governance, justice, economic stability, and social cohesion. Unlike indicators that only count violence or conflict, it focuses on the underlying conditions that prevent conflict from arising. A higher score indicates a more stable, fair, and resilient society with strong institutions and social harmony. The index helps understand how well a country manages its social, political, and economic systems to promote sustainable peace and avoid conflict.
