The Institute works with Nobel Peace Prize Laureates and organizes major worldwide
  conferences  with them. By tapping the creative experience of these generals of the “world peace
  movement” we can apply their knowledge to the world’s most violent and dangerous conflict    
  areas.  We call this aspect of our program the “Nobel Peace Initiatives”. In May 2001 in Portland,
  Oregon  we brought together 6 Nobel Peace Laureates for a conference on world peace with the
  Nobel Peace Laureate the Dalai Lama as the host. In November 8-9, 2004  we will bring 6 Nobel
  Peace Laureates to Rome, Italy to critique and recommend a Nobel Peace Initiative for the Middle
  East in partnership with the Gorbachev Foundation-Italian Branch & Mayor Walter Veltroni's Office
  and there "Nobel Peace Summit. In 2005 we will hold a  similar conference in Seoul, South Korea
  with former President Kim Dae Jung and a Nobel Peace  Prize Laureate as the host.
