PAX is part of a 25 year-old family of foundations, led by Marcel Arsenault and Cynda Collins Arsenault, the co-founders of the PAX sapiens Foundation, Shuraako Capital (formerly the One Earth Future Foundation), and the Secure World Foundation (SWF).
Founded in 2024, PAX sapiens’ (PAX) currently focuses on four specific preventable catastrophic risks. These are preventing global pandemics, preventing armed conflicts between the US and China, preventing the use of nuclear weapons, and preventing the manufacture and distribution of fentanyl and other illegal, synthetic drugs. We operate with a long-term perspective, an empirical approach, and leverage [P^3] partnerships that bring non-state actors to the table alongside governments to collectively solve problems.
PAX also is advancing the global women, peace, and security agenda via the Our Secure Future program.
