Generations For Peace (GFP) is a Jordan-based global non-profit peacebuilding organisation founded by HRH Prince Feisal Al Hussein of Jordan in 2007. Dedicated to sustainable peacebuilding and the use of sport, advocacy, art, dialogue, empowerment, and media for conflict transformation, GFP empowers volunteer leaders of youth to promote active tolerance and responsible citizenship in communities that experience different forms of conflict and violence.

With our support, their ongoing programmes address local issues of conflict and violence and have touched the lives of more than 1,446,349 children, youth and adults in different contexts.
