Investing in Peace: Taking Conflict Resolution and Development to Scale

On October 13th, 2009, the Alliance for Peacebuilding hosted the Conflict Prevention and Resolution Forum on the topic "Investing in Peace."
Peace, like war, is expensive. Yet monies for war far exceed grants for development, conflict prevention and resolution, and post-conflict reconstruction. This is not for a lack of investment opportunities. Indeed, there is great untapped capacity within development and aid organizations, and the proposals for new projects are abundant. So what can NGOs do to make their proposals win and to take their work to scale? What can organizations do to better measure and present the material incentives of investment in development and improved relationships? And what are the bureaucratic and policy challenges of reprioritizing government spending to development and diplomacy.
