Inviting Contributions to a White Paper on the Future of Environmental Peacebuilding (DEADLINE: April 16)

Mar 7, 2021 | Geneva Peacebuilding Platform, PeaceNexus Foundation, International Union for Conservation of Nature, and Environmental Peacebuilding Association

The Geneva Peacebuilding Platform acts as a neutral convener of the Geneva Dialogue on Environment, Climate, Conflict, and Peace in order to improve the exchange between environmental and peacebuilding communities. In collaboration with the PeaceNexus Foundation, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and the Environmental Peacebuilding Association (EnPAx), GPP proposes a collective process to develop a White Paper on the Future of Environmental Peacebuilding in order to advance a forward-looking practical agenda based on the patterns of consent and disagreement on key environmental peacebuilding questions.

The White Paper is a policy-oriented document, to be developed through a reflexive, consultative, multi-stakeholder process. It aims to deliver a strong, cogent message about the future of the field to the Stockholm+50 forum in June 2022.

Finally, we ask that you please share this call for proposals with your networks. One of the primary goals of the White Paper is to engage a global process which includes a variety of stakeholders and sectors, even outside of the “usual suspects” in environmental peacebuilding.
