Gregory M. Reichberg is Research Professor at the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO). He has held appointments in political science at the University of Oslo and in philosophy at the Catholic University of America, Fordham University, and MF-Norwegian School of Theology, Religion, and Society. From 2012-2020 he headed the Oslo-based Research School on Peace and Conflict, and from 2009-2012, he was director of the PRIO Cyprus Centre in Nicosia, where he coordinated research and dialogue activities toward a political settlement of the island’s division.

Reichberg co-leads (with Jovana Davidovic) PRIO's research project, "Ethical Risk Assessment of AI-enabled Weapons: A Systems Approach," funded by the Research Council of Norway. He previously led "Warring with Machines: Artificial Intelligence and the Relevance of Virtue Ethics," a four year (2021-2023) project funded by the Research Council of Norway.

A member of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences (PASS) since 2016, he has taken the lead in organizing conferences, including most recently "Satellites for Peace, An Idea Whose Time has Come" (June 24-25, 2026), which brought together representatives from academia, space industry, governments, and the UN, to examine how satellite-based remote sensing can strengthen humanitarian initiatives in conflict-affected settings across the globe. From 2020-2025, he was a consultor to the Holy See’s Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, where his contributions focused on disarmament, the ethical implications of new military technologies, and broader issues of war and peace.
