Two quick thought experiments
1. Imagine you can "see" the relationship between India and Pakistanright now
Imagine you can stand back
walk around it
look up at it from underneath
even see inside it

2. Touching History--Greece & Turkey
Imagine you can "touch" the last three thousand years of conflictbetween Greece and Turkey
Imagine you can turn it over
feel the sharp crack edges and smooth dents
stroke the surface
flex the strong points
feel where it's weak

The physical problem & virtual opportunity
The "real" problem is, whatever experience you just had is largely lost.
None of the rest of us can share it verify it, or engage with it.
Right now, it has no objective reality we can all agree on.
But each of these conflicts is very real. And they have both a virtualand physical reality.
And that's the "virtual" opportunity.

What we'll cover in this quick deck
What Peace Data is
Why Peace data is important
The business case for peace
Units of Peace Data: Minimum Acceptable PeacefulInteractions
Using aggregated peace data to make a Social Energy Map

Think of peace in terms of engagementbetween two people with a difference
This is how we've done engagementfor most of
human history

But recently, more and moreengagementis mediated by technology.
That creates data,
Peace data

Peace Data looks like this
Peace Data Structure
Person A does a unilateral, measurable action, across adifference boundary, to or for Person B
which generates data.

Peace Data
This is a specific, frequently recurring data structure, which allows usto measure peace:
dynamically
at very high resolution
across massive sample sizes
with extreme precision

Here's one Peace Data example from our partnershipwith Facebook, at peace.facebook.com

But this just scratches the surface ofwhat's possible
Imagine if we could integrate and show allthe peace dataon FB. The messages, wall posts, status updates, likes,games played, etc
Imagine if we could go a step further, and include the peacedata from other social software services too, not just FB
Imagine if we could visualize and displaythis data in usefulways, something like the social equivalent of Google Earth
That's what the Social Energy Map project is all about.

We are formalizing this data structure. We've named these events
MAPIs: Minimum Acceptable Peaceful Interactions
Billions of MAPIs are recorded in tech company databases every day:
A Teaparty Republican friends a San Francisco
Democrat on Google+, crossing a contentious politicalboundary
A Chilean sends a friendly Gmail email to an Argentinian
on Gmail, communicating effectively and crossing thenationality boundary A Coptic Christian buys a sofa from a Salafist Muslim on
eBay, crossing the religious boundary A fifteen year-old collaborates with a fifty year-old on
writing a Wikipedia article, crossing the age boundary John mows Sallys virtual lawn on FarmVille, bridging thegender boundary
Each of these events becomes a precise data point.

MAPIs. Minimum Acceptable Peaceful Interactions
Billions of MAPIs are recorded in tech company databases every day:

Orthodox Israeli Jew on Twitter, communicating
effectively across both religion and nationalityboundaries A Coptic Christian buys a sofa from a Salafist Muslim on
eBay, crossing the religious boundary A fifteen year-old collaborates with a fifty year-old on

Taken collectively...
These peace data sets can form a high resolution, realtime
Social Energy MapThink of this as the social equivalent of mapping
earthquake fault-lines, or ocean currents, or traffic flow.

Why This Matters
For the first time in human history, because of technology we can really measure peace - at extremely high resolution- so we can visualize, and model it
if we can measure and map it, we can design for it
using the same ubiquitous digital sensor technology, we canquickly test intervention designs, then optimize and scalethem. As odd as it sounds, Peace can be computational
In other words, we're talking about an engineering approachto peace--rigorous, quantitative, methodical, empirical, data-driven, falsifiable. Ultimately, predictive

Implications for Corporate Partners
If your company measurablyincreases peace, you can:
create new brand value increase customer engagement, legitimacy and
build customer loyalty
Ultimately, we can create a global peace market, that profits

Look for this data structurein yourcompany
Partner businesses can get certified for how muchmeasurable peace you're creating
Please build it into everything you code: this will eventually
be a revenue stream
Please port it out to help build the Social Energy Map
Please help us find cool ways to visualize it
