The Peace Federation builds on the
foundation established over decades through a wide range
of organizations and programs founded by Dr. Sun Myung
Moon, including the Holy Spirit Association for the
Unification of World Christianity (known as the Unification
Church), established in 1954, and the Family Federation
for World Peace and Unification, established in 1996.
More recently, in 1999, Dr. Moon founded the IIFWP as
an organization dedicated to developing new models of
governance, guided by representatives of religions and
governments in a respectful, cooperative partnership
for the sake of peace. The IIFWP has promoted many initiatives,
including one aimed at renewal of the United Nations,
recommending that the United Nations create an interreligious
council within its system.
Based on IIFWP’s foundation, Dr. Moon launched
the Interreligious and International Peace Council (IIPC)
in October of 2003. The IIPC promotes an ideal of good
governance that integrates the contributions of religion,
governments and non-governmental organizations in the
pursuit of peace. IIPC programs are carried out by a
global network of Ambassadors for Peace who have formed
Peace Councils on the Global, Regional, National and
Local levels.
