57:30Now PlayingMilitary leaders experience conflicts firsthand, giving them a unique perspective in discussions to resolve conflict through diverse and nonviolent means. As one of America’s earliest veterans, George Washington helped lead the U.S. recovery after the War of Independence and guide the country toward a peaceful path. In doing so, Washington set an example for the countless veterans who would go on to serve the country he helped found.
On November 7, USIP hosted this year’s “First in War, First in Peace” conversation. Named in honor of George Washington, who was famously eulogized as “first in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of his countrymen,” this annual series was created to engage and learn from our miliary veterans. This year’s program explored our military’s recent contributions in conflict and post-conflict areas and examine how stability and democracy can lead to better peace and security in a region.

In conflict zones abroad, the Institute works with local partners to prevent, mitigate, and resolve violent conflict. To reduce future crises and the need for costly interventions, USIP works with governments and civil societies to build local capacities to manage conflict peacefully. The Institute pursues its mission by linking research, policy, training, analysis and direct action to support those who are working to build a more peaceful, inclusive world. Learn more about USIP
