Panel: Preventing Violent Conflict and Building Peace: Saving Lives, Saving Livelihoods, Saving Money
The panel discussion was written up in the May 1, 2006 issue of Monday Developments
Providing humanitarian relief and fostering sustainable development becomes increasingly costly and difficult once widespread violent conflict has broken out. With commentary from expert donors, practitioners, and analysts, this workshop explored possible roles for NGOs in preventing and mitigating violent conflict. We examined some challenges to operationalizing a prevention model, and how PVO programs are a vital component of global, national, and local peace building efforts.
