Ten years ago, our Chair Kofi Annan established the Kofi Annan Foundation to apply his expertise and experience for the benefit of peace. From our earliest days brokering peace in Kenya to supporting democracy and elections with integrity in Nigeria, to changing drug policies in West Africa and combatting hunger, to helping post-conflict societies back onto the road to peace and empowering young leaders, our small team has not had much respite.
We have spent the past 10 years working on breaking down obstacles to peace, one barrier at a time. We have sought to establish coalitions for change, united in their quest for peace, by mobilising the voices of leaders, citizens, corporations and all those who can make a difference – and that includes you!
