Recent updates from Governing Board

Ministers universally called for meaningful inclusion of women, youth, and civil society in peacebuilding design and governance, backed by concrete programmatic commitments.
Why it matters: Research shows peace agreements last longer when women help shape them, yet delegates noted that inclusion is still treated as secondary rather than foundational.
Ministers demanded predictable, sustained peacebuilding finance and stronger partnerships with international financial institutions and development banks.
Why it matters: Military spending exceeds $2.8 trillion while peacebuilding funding declines; delegates argued that every dollar in prevention saves seven in post-conflict reconstruction.
Over 25 ministers agreed that lasting peace must be nationally led and called for concrete mechanisms to turn the principle of national ownership into operational reality.
