This study aims to map global trends in peace education research using a bibliometric analysis approach. Using data from 381 articles in the Scopus database (2015–2024), this study analyzed publication trends, author contributions, institutions, as well as the distribution of research themes. Bibliometric methods enable an understanding of publication distribution, citation patterns, and collaboration networks. The results show significant growth in the number of publications, with the United States as the most productive country (102 publications), followed by the United Kingdom (56 publications). The University of Cambridge was the institution with the most contributions (13 publications), while Zembylas, M. was the leading author with 12 publications and 142 citations. The Journal of Peace Education dominates with 109 publications. Research themes include clusters such as critical education, decolonization, post-conflict peace, and global citizenship education. The findings provide a comprehensive overview of the dynamics of peace education, reveal the contributions of important authors and institutions, and identify research gaps. The study highlights the relevance of peace education in dealing with global conflicts and promoting tolerance through integrating various critical and pedagogical approaches. As such, it encourages cross-disciplinary collaboration to strengthen comprehensive peace education efforts. © 2026 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
