The World Peace Humanity Index: Dinis Guarda At The 10th World Peace Parliament Of Science, Religion, And Philosophy

At the 10th World Peace Parliament of Science, Religion, and Philosophy, held at the World Peace Dome in Pune, Dinis Guarda introduces the concept of the World Peace Humanity Index. In his address, he explores how science, religion, and technology can converge to create a measurable formula for peace. The index aims to quantify the likelihood of peace or conflict, integrating multiple data points from emotional intelligence to resource inequality. 

“Peace is a powerful and yet simple concept. Peace is an essential goal for humanity, and has been a subject of philosophical debate, political endeavour, and academic inquiry for millennia. 

However, to understand peace in a quantifiable, actionable manner, we need to go deeper in the nature of humanity”, says Dinis Guarda, Founder and CEO of ztudium and global thought leader and influencer in technology and spirituality.

Mentioning that Rev Prof. Dr. Vishwanath Karad, the visionary behind the World Peace Dome, inspired him to consider a mathematical formula for peace, Dinis addressed the parliament to reflect on the longstanding question: “Can we create a World Peace AI Mathematical Code? A World Peace Humanity Index?” 

Drawing references from the historical events, especially the conflicts, Dinis says:

“The 20th century marked one of the most historically turbulent eras, featuring two World Wars, colonial uprisings, and numerous regional conflicts. 

Yet, in the aftermath of the Second World War, while global conflicts have continued, their nature has shifted. Despite a relative reduction in large-scale wars, perceptions of peace and war remain complex, with smaller-scale or regional conflicts like the ones we are experiencing as we speak and global crises (such as financial, terrorism and cyber warfare, fake news, digital and tech disruption) perpetuating an intensifying sense of unrest.”

Taking lessons from these events and from his deep expertise in the area, Dinis says:

"We can propose a formula to integrate these insights into our daily lives, using emotional intelligence, education, and religion to achieve the best version of ourselves.” He called on religious leaders, academics, and technology experts to collaborate in refining the index to make it a practical tool for policymakers and global leaders.

The World Peace Humanity Index

The World Peace Humanity Index crafted by Dinis Guarda is created coordination with AI and AGI principles:

“Using AI and Research on the last 12000 years of the maturity of humanity as a civilisation, I tried to elaborate and present a comprehensive framework for a A World Peace Humanity Index. This is a mathematical model that integrates historical data on Humanity features, emotional intelligence, ideas, personalities fostering progress and balance, and the data on war, conflict, and how nonviolent resistance can be developed using technology and AI.”

The World Peace Humanity Index integrates several factors to assess peace:

• Nonviolent Movements (NF): The presence of nonviolent movements within a given period is a key factor in determining peace. These movements reflect a society's inclination toward peaceful resolution of conflicts.
• Literacy Rate (LR): Guarda pointed out that a population with a higher literacy rate, especially in emotional intelligence and education, is less likely to engage in conflict. "An informed population is less likely to engage in war," he stated.
• Wealth and Well-being Gap (WR): The gap in wealth and resources plays a pivotal role in the index. Addressing resource inequality can reduce tensions and create a more stable environment.
• Environmental Resource Degradation (ER): Environmental sustainability is another key factor in the index. Guarda emphasised the importance of preserving resources for future generations, stating that this would become increasingly crucial as we move towards a sustainable development model.

Dinis proposes an index that quantifies peace on a scale from 0 to 1, where 1 represents complete peace, and 0 denotes complete war. This approach aims to provide an objective way to assess the state of peace, offering insights that go beyond subjective interpretation.

The Role of Artificial General Intelligence In World Peace

As part of his vision for the World Peace Humanity Index, Dinis Guarda discussed the role of artificial general intelligence (AGI) in shaping the future of peace efforts. 

“We are in a time when AI is becoming the new evolutionary second nature of humanity and we are moving into AGI. At this moment in time, we have to rethink how we behave and design our thinking, our humanity operating systems”, he says.

Dinis stressed the need for guiding AGI towards beneficial outcomes:

Can we create the foundation of a World Peace Humanity Index using an AI data-driven approach? Can we create Wisdom + Utopia - Wisdomia that can integrate humanity’s millennial wisdom, and integrate nonviolent concepts from figures like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.? Can we draw on the lessons of the last 12,000 / 5,000 years of human history?”

Speaking about the impact of the World Peace Humanity Index, he highlights:

“This AI index will not only quantify humanity's capacity to manage balance progress and harmony, the current levels of peace but also predict potential future conflicts and offer solutions based on a mathematical understanding of peace and war dynamics.” 

A global effort to ensure peace and harmony in the world 

One of the key takeaways from Guarda's speech was the need for collaborative action across different sectors of society. He urged all attendees, from religious leaders to technologists, to contribute their knowledge and expertise to make the World Peace Humanity Index a reality.

"I believe that here, within this wonderful space, we can act and make a new reality," he concluded, reinforcing the idea that peace is not just a concept but a continuous effort that must be integrated into daily life through education, technology, and action.

Redefining our future with the World Peace Humanity Index

The World Peace Humanity Index is not just an academic exercise; it offers a potential framework for addressing global conflicts through data-driven insights. Inviting a collaborative effort in building a peaceful future for all, Dinis says:

“This initiative, and institution, is a major milestone in building the road forward towards war against war and that always starts with our children, each one of us. I would like to invite you to build this World Peace Humanity Index with me! We all here have a responsibility. It always starts, now!”

He concluded the keynote by quoting Dr. Vijay Bhatkar, renowned Indian computer scientist, IT leader, and educationalist, best known as the 'Architect of India's supercomputing' initiative:

“Everyone has to struggle, so don’t be afraid of it. It helps build capabilities to achieve success."
