About Carnegie Foundation

The Carnegie Foundation in the Netherlands owns and manages the Peace Palace and we are proud to house the International Court of Justice, the Permanent Court of Arbitration and The Hague Academy of International Law, all supported by our Peace Palace Library.



In addition, the Carnegie Foundation is committed to promoting the issues of war and peace, human rights, international law and international cooperation from the Peace Palace. To this end, the foundation facilitates dialogues and events. Every other year, the board also awards the Carnegie Wateler Peace Prize to inspiring advocates of peace.

Furthermore, the foundation manages the monumental cultural heritage of the Peace Palace, which carries the European Heritage Label, and the Carnegie Foundation provides public education on ‘Peace through Law’ and ‘Peace through Culture’ from its Visitor Centre.
