Global Peace Index 2026
More news about the topic
The 2026 Global Peace Index reveals a world struggling with the economic consequences of a record-high number of conflicts that are increasingly interconnected and difficult to resolve. Global peacefulness deteriorated for the 12th consecutive year, driven by a profound geopolitical shift, known as the ‘Great Fragmentation’, characterised by the rising influence of middle powers and the waning strength of traditional European powers.

For the first time in history, machines are making life-and-death combat decisions faster than any human can review them, and the international frameworks meant to govern them lack global commitment.
