Peacebuild eNewsletter
Peacebuild is a strong network of Canadian non-governmental
organizations, institutions, and individuals actively involved in peacebuilding practice and policy development.
Peacebuild’s working groups bring together members interested in particular thematic
areas such as Children & Armed Conflict, Conflict Prevention, Gender & Peacebuilding, Peace Operations,
and Small Arms & Light Weapons. Additionally, the network works on other peacebuilding-related topics.
The Peacebuild eNewsletter provides a once per month update on the Canadian Peacebuilding Network's activities.
