[edit intro]

Established as an independent organization (i.e., quasi-autonomous non-governmental organization) by Congress, the United States Institute of Peace (USIP) is chartered to help, through training, advice, and direct engagement in peace operations, in:

* Preventing and resolving violent international conflicts
* Promoting post-conflict stability and development
* Increasing conflict management capacity, tools, and intellectual capital worldwide

## Muslim World Initiative[edit]

A forum entitled “The Role of American Muslims in Bridging the U.S.-Muslim Divide” was sponsored by the US-Islamic World Project of the Brookings Institution and the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding.[1]

### Afghanistan[edit]

USIP teams did fieldwork to establish priorities in stabilizing Afghanistan.[2]
