Abstract
This chapter is about the world's first competency-based assessment method for accrediting peace professionals/leaders using Core Values and Key Competencies. Beginning with the rationale for peace professionalism as essential to peace leadership, it shows how Accreditation for Peace evolves, is endorsed by Johan Galtung, tested, and revised (certification mark now pending). While most challenging, the innovative values component makes the greatest contribution. The chapter ends with the key role peace leaders can play in moving humanity towards the global Culture of Peace endorsed by UN Resolution (ARES/53/243).
