Europe Peace Foundation Statement on Global Humanitarian Events

Madrid Spain
October 13 2025

This week, the Europe Peace Foundation observes with deep concern the unfolding humanitarian crises around the world. Most urgently, the ongoing conflict in the Tigray region of Ethiopia continues to displace thousands of families, leaving communities without access to food, healthcare, and basic protection. As violence devastates lives, our commitment remains unwavering: we fight against the forces of war and aggression by promoting peace, dialogue, and justice.

The European Peace Foundation is dedicated to defending human dignity by offering practical solutions, supporting initiatives that alleviate suffering, and advocating for policies that protect civilians. We believe that sustainable peace is achieved not only by preventing conflict but also by addressing its root causes through collaborative, just, and peaceful means.

In these challenging times, we reaffirm our mission: to transform moments of violence into opportunities for understanding, reconciliation, and collective action. We call on governments, civil society, and individuals alike to join us in building a world where peace is the first response, not the last.
