#PeacebuildingIs

In 2023 on the International Day of Peace, Alliance for Peacebuilding (AfP) posed a simple question: “Peace is what?” The #PeacebuildingIs campaign asks AfP members to tell us about an actionable peacebuilding program.

In 250 words or less, tell us about the problem you are trying to solve and how you are preventing and reducing violent conflict, violence and fragility and building sustainable peace in faraway places and in neighborhoods just down the street. Submit your program here.
