By convening a broad spectrum of partners from governments, aid agencies, civil society, private sector, and research institutions among others, the 3-day Forum aims to facilitate a robust exchange of knowledge and experience among policymakers and practitioners, highlighting innovative work and groundbreaking initiatives that can improve development solutions. Yet, more needs to be done to reorient development programs to make them more effective on the ground.

To help meet this challenge, the World Bank Group Fragility, Conflict and Violence Forum 2016, to be held March 1-3, 2016 in Washington, DC, World Bank Headquarters, will focus on how to realize the SDGs in fragile and conflict-affected states, with special attention to SDG16 – promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, providing access to justice, and building effective, accountable and inclusive institutions – as a critical foundation for sustainable development.
