IPI

IPI was founded in 1970 by US philanthropist Ruth Forbes Young and Indian Major General Indar Jit Rikhye, in close consultation with then-UN Secretary-General U Thant. They recognized that a thoroughly independent institution, free from official constraints, could make a unique contribution to multilateral efforts to prevent and resolve armed conflict around the world... IPI is proud to have received the highest ratings from two of the leading charity evaluators in the United States: Charity Navigator and CharityWatch. IPI is also proud to be a platinum-level Guidestar participant, demonstrating our commitment to transparency.
