The Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) is the organization that produces the Global Peace Index (GPI). The IEP is an Australian non-governmental organization (NGO).
The GPI is an annual report that classifies the countries and territories of the world according to their level of peace. The report analyzes trends in peace, its economic value and how to develop peaceful societies.
The GPI covers 99.7% of the world's population, and uses 23 qualitative and quantitative indicators from highly respected sources, and measures the state of peace in three domains: - The level of security and social protection. - The extent of ongoing national and international conflict. - The degree of militarization.
