First Peacebuilders' Summit programme released

On 7 May 2008, on the eve of the one-year anniversary of the re-establishment of the Assembly, peacebuilders from across the world will share their perspectives, practice and experience of the challenges of peacebuilding.

The focus for the summit is dynamic learning, looking at new ways for peacebuilders from across the globe to update their programming, share their expertise and gain fresh ideas.

This exciting summit is aimed at...
...any individual, researcher, civic peacebuilder or organisation involved in peacebuilding, and offers an opportunity to explore real-world perspectives on building peace in areas of conflict, and to exchange practice on how to build stable and sustainable post-conflict societies.

Learning

Delegates will…

• learn new approaches to peacebuilding to utilise in their communities
• gain free training on emerging and innovative models for peacebuilding

There will be innovative opportunities for learning and networking, as well as a few surprises!
