Old knowledge for a new time
The PENTHESILEA PEACE Foundation is a non-profit foundation domiciled in Liechtenstein. The Foundation dedicates its work to the development of methods for international conflict resolution and peace work. Knowledge from ancient cultures is being reawakened to enable the strengthening of peace. The Foundation organises and supports peace dialogues between people of different origins, cultures, races and religions in order to unite the human family on earth and build bridges.
Penthesilea Peace Foundation
The Foundation’s mission is to rediscover the knowledge of the Amazons as early warriors of antiquity and make it accessible to our world in a modern way. Even though the Amazons have been relegated to the realm of mythology, they have always inspired and encouraged us. The myth is built on the qualities of dignity, courage, self-determination, and independence. In ancient cultures, women kept the peace and were taught to follow paths of reconciliation and forgiveness.
Indigenous women's knowledge
Female indigenous knowledge is not about war, it is the knowledge of cooperative and consensual interaction. It is a knowledge that preserves, protects, guards and maintains. These are qualities that are needed to create a new consciousness to deal with and overcome crises of our time. Spiritual insights are to be revived, sacred knowledge revealed and created into new messages to reach the hearts of the people. In ancient cultures the earth is referred to as the mother that nourishes and nurtures us and must be preserved by us humans.
Brave warrior of the Amazons
“I am Penthesilea, daughter of the Amazon queen Ortrere and the Olympian god of war Ares. They also called us the daughters of the Greek god of war, Ares. For many people, as an Amazon, I am a mythological figure who never lived. I was banished to the realm of myths and legends. Homer, however, whether by intention or accident, made us immortal and gave us a place in his Iliad as brave warrior women.”
The Penthesilea Academy
The Penthesilea Foundation established the Penthesilea Academy as the idea of an anthropological academy for leadership programmes and supports as a neutral dialogue platform peace talks around the world.
