Peaceful World · Support

Support the work that keeps peace education open.

Peaceful World creates research, educational tools and public resources that remain freely accessible. Regular support gives the organisation continuity; one-time support helps us close concrete needs.

What we need now

Here are Peaceful World’s current needs: a sustainable operating baseline, priority equipment and resource support.

BASE BUDGETAnnual

€60,000/year

Minimum sustainable operations

An annual planning target for legal, technical and organisational costs needed to keep Peaceful World operating. It is not income already received.

CURRENT PRIORITYOpen

up to €6,000

AI-capable workstation

This is a separate, one-time funding goal beyond the €60,000 annual operating baseline, not a purchase already made. A high-memory workstation would support content production, research and local AI. Full, partial or equipment support is welcome.

RESOURCE SUPPORTUseful now

Equipment Software Expertise

Contribute resources

Licences, cloud credits, professional services, hardware and useful introductions directly reduce our operating costs.

What support makes possible

Support keeps open education, digital infrastructure, institutional resilience and accessible materials working together.

Open education

Research, public tools and educational materials remain freely accessible.

Digital infrastructure

Hosting, development, security, backups, software and reliable equipment.

Institutional resilience

Accounting, compliance, governance and legal work keep the organisation dependable.

Languages & accessibility

Translation, localisation, audio and accessibility help knowledge travel farther.

Funding horizon

Three annual funding scenarios show the scale of work different budgets could sustain, from a stable base to research infrastructure. These are plans, not funds already received.

SeedBaseline

€60,000/year

Continuity and security

The same annual operating baseline shown above, not an additional €60,000 request. This is a planning scenario.

CoreScale

€250,000/year

Professional team and growth

Increase professional production, language capacity, tools and expert review.

GrowthInstitute

€500,000/year

Research infrastructure

Develop a larger research, educational and international collaboration infrastructure.

What has already gone into Peaceful World

Here we show the resources already invested in Peaceful World: founder time, its workday equivalent and a reference labour value calculated with an open method.

≈2,205 h

Founder time

Approximate founder time invested from Aug 2025 through Aug 2026, based on a calibrated working baseline.

≈276

Equivalent 8-hour days

The same amount of time expressed as a more intuitive workday equivalent.

≈39 h/week

Average per week

Typical working rhythm across the represented period — about 39 hours per week.

≈€77k

Estimated value of founder time

Using the Eurostat 2025 EU whole-economy average labour cost of €34.9/hour as a reference for the founder’s in-kind contribution. Eurostat ↗

Method and source

The baseline covers 13 full months from Aug 2025 through Aug 2026. A two-month Toggl sample from February and March 2026 averaged 169.65 hours per month and serves as the calibration point for the historical estimate. We use ≈39 hours/week as the working baseline; continuous personal time tracking is not required for the current model. The euro figure uses the Eurostat 2025 EU average labour cost of €34.9/hour as a reference for in-kind founder time. Other resource categories are added when reliable records exist.
