Multi-lateral and local civil society perspectives on 'peace' in the triple nexus: Singing from the same song sheet?

Multi-lateral and local civil society perspectives on 'peace' in the triple nexus: Singing from the same song sheet? 1
Co-hosted by the KUNO Platform, ACT Alliance EU and Dan Church Aid. We invite participants and speakers to bring their thoughts on the main findings of the draft paper released by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee group working on humanitarian, development and peace, and to delve into the peace aspect of the triple nexus from the perspective of local actors.

Peace remains on uncertain ground in policy and practice, as highlighted by many of the organisations involved in the Voice Nexus reporting and the recent Berlin Centre for Humanitarian Action webinar on the paper recently released by Marc du Bois highlighting the need to overcome top-down institutional discussion to genuine people-centred action.

We therefore ask our local partners, field teams and civil society to reflect on what peace means to us as humanitarian and development responders and what are our priorities moving forward? How does this reflect and connect with IASC recent thinking and EU level action?
