Peace Agreements
Database Search

This MSU database provides peacemaking professionals with close to 1,300 documents that can be understood broadly as peace agreements. Users can access the full texts of the agreements in different languages and using search criteria below, including by country/region, year and type of conflict.

For more complex research, Language of Peace is an innovative tool developed by MSU and the University of Cambridge to compare and collate language on key issues across 75,000+ peace agreement provisions.

MSU also maintains a collection of guidance, policy and practice documents on different thematic issues that frequently arise in mediation processes and peace agreements.
