Working in an ever-changing political context presents a set of unique challenges to sustainable peacemaking, and requires the continuous adaptation of approaches. This briefing shares key insights from the latest external evaluation of EcoPeace's (formerly Friends of the Earth Middle East) programme, building on sustainable environmental solutions paired with enhanced trust and understanding in a conflict zone. It presents a peacemaking model that can be applied to other conflict areas.
EcoPeace Middle East is a leading practitioner of environmental peacemaking and water diplomacy. It has over 20 years of experience in conflict resolution through the development of cooperative strategies to address shared water and environment challenges.
