The Peace Begins at Home Summit is a one-day global virtual event on 29 October 2025 (13:00–19:30 UTC), produced by the Center for Partnership Systems. Inspired by Dr. Riane Eisler’s work, it brings together global leaders and changemakers, to explore how early patterns of domination shape our world — and how shifting to partnership can build lasting peace. Insights will feed into a post-summit Peace Begins at Home Handbook, shared globally to drive impact beyond the event.

Join us for an extraordinary evening exploring The Archive's, a one-of-a-kind sanctuary overlooking the Chicago skyline, while “lighting the way” for positive change. You're invited into a creative play-space integrated with immersive installations and artistic vignettes inspired by environmental, cultural and community projects based around the world, and in the Chicagoland area. Embracing the theme of light and illumination, this year's annual event will spotlight the creative solutions emerging in global communities, thanks to the support of Purpose Earth's grant and mentorship program. Every dollar from donations, ticket sales, and auction proceeds will go directly to supporting our 2026 Purpose Earth grant recipients through a grant and mentorship program.
