Strategies for Peace
Supporting Effective Decision Making and Impact
Building Foundations for Sustainable Peace
The challenges in realising the ambitious provisions of peace agreements are considerable. Popular expectations of immediate transformation and tangible peace are high. New power relations and unexpected challenges emerge. The quality of a peace agreement is only equal to the quality of its implementation. The shape and design of peace agreements are often made in constrained situations but the decisions are ultimately devolved to institutions that implement under considerable public scrutiny. Strategies for Peace focuses on supporting effective decision making throughout these stages and processes. It also works on ensuring that there is adequate public consultation, accountability and inclusion to bolster prospects for a lasting peace.
