Der CPDC trauert um Peter Kostelka

Peter Kostelka

The Conflict Peace Democracy Cluster is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Peter Kostelka on 17 April 2025. As President of the Austrian Centre for Peace, he provided important political and organisational impetus for our Cluster from 2013 to 2019.

 

Peter Kostelka knew how to use his extensive political experience and organisational skills to further the goals of the Cluster and anchor it at the University of Graz. Not only the Peace Centre has benefited from his political skills and experience, but also all Cluster organisations. His diplomatic skills and constructive approach to problem-solving were exemplary and had a positive influence on the climate within the CPDC. Peter Kostelka leaves behind not only a professional gap, but also a personal one.

We remember Peter Kostelka with gratitude for his important contribution to the CPDC and offer our deepest condolences to his family and loved ones
