Given the on-going developments in the peacebuilding and prevention fields, this joint report by GPPAC and QUNO serves as a contribution to: increase practical understanding of what sustaining peace means; assess the progress and remaining challenges facing peacebuilding practice; and articulate recommendations for the way forward. The report presents the main areas explored during the research, namely: 1) the normative, political and operational impact of sustaining peace thus far; 2) analysis on the work of the PBC to uphold its convening, advisory and bridging responsibilities within this changing UN environment; 3) UN and Member States’ understanding of and processes to build strategic and operational partnerships with civil society; and 4) the importance and impact of inclusive approaches to sustaining peace.
