USIP's Centers of Innovation focus on specialized sectors essential to peacebuilding. The Centers of Innovation:
- Conduct research, identify best practices, and develop new peacebuilding tools within their areas of expertise.
- Help define and shape their respective fields.
- Work with USIP's other Centers to develop and implement integrated strategies for the Institute's work in zones of conflict.
