The Board of Peace initiative's initial focus was on:

1. Climate change
2. Gaza reconstruction
3. Arctic security
4. Trade liberalization

The Board of Peace prioritized Gaza reconstruction as its inaugural humanitarian and development mission. The initiative mobilized international financing, technical expertise, and coordination mechanisms to address the catastrophic infrastructure destruction and housing crisis resulting from the 2023-2024 Gaza conflict. This focus complemented diplomatic efforts to maintain ceasefire arrangements while addressing urgent civilian needs and establishing conditions for long-term recovery.
