"Alliance for Peacebuilding"
Organization
Summary
Our Vision is a world where each person feels secure, dignified, and included; a world where people build peace and manage conflict without violence.
Our Mission is to champion greater peacebuilding influence, impact, and innovation to avert wars, end violence, and save lives.
Alliance for Peacebuilding is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit, nonpartisan network of over 140+ organizations working in 181 countries to end conflict, reduce violence and build sustainable peace. We build coalitions in critical areas of strategy and policy, develop an adaptive and rigorous evaluative culture, and build powerful partnerships and networks to elevate the entire peacebuilding field. AfP tackles issues too large for any one organization to address alone.
AfP advocates and educates on behalf of the peacebuilding field to ensure conflict prevention, violence reduction, and peacebuilding evidence produce better policy, programming, and legal frameworks. We work with the U.S. Congress and other lawmaking bodies globally to advocate for peacebuilding priorities in legislation and funding; provide expertise and advise government agencies and donors on peacebuilding and conflict prevention best practices and programs rooted in evidence; and build global coalitions of technical experts through our networks to fill research gaps and showcase innovations.
