Peacebuilding

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peacebuilding A term used with the international development community to describe the processes and activities involved in resolving violent conflict and establishing a sustainable peace. It is similar in meaning to conflict resolution or transformation, but highlights the difficult reality that the end of a conflict does not automatically lead to peaceful, stable social or economic development. A number of national and international organisations describe their activties in conflict zones as peacebuilding.
