Chair's Summary
Often the closure of a UN mission within a country coincides with reduced and irregular aid flows, which jeopardizes their ability to take long-term peace and security into their own hands.
CCCPA--in cooperation with the United Nations Peacebuilding Commission (UNPBC)-- organized a virtual high-level panel titled “Financing for Peacebuilding in Peacekeeping and Transition Contexts”. The panel was informed by a Working Paper on “Financing for Peacebuilding in Peace Operations and Transitions Contexts”, commissioned by CCCPA. The paper takes stock of existing gaps in the peacebuilding financing eco-system and provides actionable recommendations for various peacebuilding funding streams.
The panel put forward a number of suggestions and recommendations for funding peacebuilding programs and activities in peacekeeping and transition contexts, which will feed into the PBC’s annual session on peacebuilding finance. The outcomes of this year’s session will inform the PBC’s consultation to the General Assembly for the high-level meeting on financing for peacebuilding, scheduled to take place next year.
