Call for Submissions: Peacebuilding Approaches Catalogue
an article by Sarah Maitland

Want to publish your approaches and turn the world's attention to what you're doing for peace?

Global Peacebuilders is publishing a catalogue of worldwide approaches to peacebuilding, and we are looking for effective, fresh and innovative approaches from organisations working to create the conditions for a sustainable peace in their area.

The Global Peacebuilders Peacebuilding Approaches Catalogue will be a full-colour glossy publication offering an insight into the range of approaches and projects currently utilised across the world in areas affected by a variety of conflicts. We will translate every approach published within the catalogue into Arabic, English, French, Portuguese and Spanish, and circulate the completed publication to high-level recipients worldwide.

Send us your submissions for the catalogue now, and in return, we offer you a unique opportunity to promote your peacebuilding activity on an international scale, raise awareness of the learning and expertise you have to share, and help shape a publication that will become a valuable educational resource for the worldwide peacebuilding community.

The catalogue will publish 20 snapshot approaches to peacebuilding from across the world, and will give an illustration rather than a full explanation of each approach. This encourages readers to contact the peacebuilders behind the approaches in order to gain further details, and maximises your potential for increased attention to the work you are doing for peace.

How to I publish my approach?

Submitting your approaches to Global Peacebuilders for potential publication in the catalogue is fast and easy. You do not have to write new material, or prepare a lengthy report of your work - simply request a short submission form by emailing sarah@springboard-opps.org

Every approach submitted will be assessed by a Selection Panel of experts from the fields of peacebuilding, conflict resolution and peace research in Northern Ireland, and 20 final approaches will be selected for publication in the catalogue in January 2008. This promotes the peace keys of respect reject listen
