Welcome to 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.
On September 29, at the historic Montague Inn in Saginaw, the Mridha International Institute of Peace & Happiness (MIIPH) held a Walk for Peace in recognition of International Peace Day. This was the inaugural public event for MIIPH. Participants, each wearing MIIPH’s logo T-shirt, walked approximately two miles, carrying their Peace Walk banner and signs that read, “Peace Is our Purpose,” “Peace Is the Answer,” and “Peace Is Magic.” The walk proceeded to the Saginaw YMCA before returning to its starting point at the Inn.

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.
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.
