The Institute of Economy and Peace (IEP) has published a global Peace Index (GPI) for 2025. year, the world’s leading analysis of global safety and social stability. This comprehensive report is based on 23 qualitative and quantitative indicators, covering 99.7% of the world’s population.
The index measures the state of peace in three key segments: the level of social security, the intensity of domestic and international conflicts and the degree of militarization.
Iceland was re-declared the most peaceful and safest land in the world, and the seventeenth year in a row. His long-term political stability, a low degree of militarization, strong democratic institutions and almost complete absence of conflicts consist of world leaders in the field of peace. In second place, Ireland was found, thanks to strong democratic mechanisms and a high degree of internal stability. New Zealand is in third place, with especially good assessments in the fight against violent protests and terrorist threats.
Austria occupies the fourth place, and Switzerland is the heel – already traditionally high ranked because of his neutrality and diplomatic engagement. In the top 10 most important countries, more Singapore, Portugal, Denmark, Slovenia and Finland, which characterize the low crime rate, a high level of rule of law and a balanced resource allocation.
Bosnia and Herzegovina is located at 59. place, which is the middle rank. From neighboring countries, Croatia is ranked high – at 19. place, Montenegro on the 34th, while Serbia occupied 64. Position.
The Global Peace Index emphasizes how much factors such as low corruption, media freedom, social equality and political stability are key to long-term peace and safety, reports Lukavicki.ba
