PEACE IS OUR PURPOSE

The Mridha International Institute of Peace and Happiness! Founded in 2021 by Dr. Debasish Mridha, MIIPH is a nonprofit organization that offers an array of educational courses designed to empower people with tools to help solve the world’s social problems and eliminate human suffering brought about by interpersonal conflict. We also partner with other like-minded organizations to provide a menu of additional resources to equip people with tools that will help heal divisions, bring the world together, and build a better tomorrow.

Dedicated to promoting peace and happiness through tolerance, empathy, and inclusivity among people and cultures throughout the world.

The mission of the Mridha International Institute of Peace & Happiness is to harness education to address the interpersonal inequities of the world, focusing on cooperation, compromise, and empathy between all peoples and cultures to identify common ground, create solutions, and promote peace and happiness throughout the world.

To provide resources for people in every part of the world to learn practical tools for achieving and maintaining inner and outer peace through community building and education.

On Wednesday, September 18, during International Peace Week, MIIPH held an Opening Reception to celebrate the completion of Dr. Mridha’s forthcoming book, “Verses of Inner Peace.” More than 100 people attended the event, which was produced by MIIPH and SVSU Cardinal Solutions and was sponsored by the SVSU Foundation, SVSU Mental Health Services, and The Peace Project. The event site was the Marshall M. Fredericks Sculpture Museum on the Saginaw Valley State University campus.

An exhibit of 10 illustrations from Dr. Mridha’s book was on display, each accompanied by a companion quote and a wellness suggestion. SVSU student artists Bri Atudoroae, Abigail Kerby, and Savanna Shaw, who illustrated the book, also attended the opening.

The MIIPH Education Platform is launching in 2023! We invite you to become a Friend of Peace and learn valuable knowledge and tools that can help you find peace wherever life takes you. We’ll be posting lesson content with our experts in philosophy, psychology, physiology, theology, the arts, political science, and other disciplines, to show how integrated peace is in a civilized society. Each course has three lessons and a test that you must pass (80%) to move to the next level. Earn a printable certificate of completion for every course that you pass. We’ll even show you how to organize a peace event, or your own MIIPH chapter. We are here to empower you with education so you can promote the tools of peace in your community.
