Peace is considered to be a necessary ingredient for sustainable development. However, the same can only be achieved and assured where all the needs of groups are taken care of and any dissatisfaction is addressed adequately. Most if not all of the socio-economic needs of a people largely rely on the status of the environment. It is therefore arguable that there is a link between the state of the environment and peace in any society. This paper critically discusses how peacebuilding efforts can benefit from enhancing and streamlining environmental governance as way of addressing some of the causative factors that may directly or indirectly contributed to instability in a society.
