Division 48 - Society for the Study of Peace, Conflict, and Violence: Peace Psychology Division works to promote peace in the world at large and within nations, communities, and families.

The Division fosters communication among researchers, teachers, and practitioners who are working on these issues and are applying the knowledge and methods of psychology in the advancement of peace and prevention of violence and destructive conflict. The Division seeks to make connections between all areas of psychological work and peace and welcomes participation from all areas of the discipline.
