FriEnt is aware of its global responsibility for peaceful, inclusive, and fair societies and consequently strengthens international networking and global dialogue about current peacebuilding agendas and themes. It further contributes to the implementation of the peacebuilding dimension of Agenda 2030 and SDG 16+.

The FriEnt Peacebuilding Forum

The FriEnt Peacebuilding Forum (FriEnt PBF) is an international platform for cross-actor dialogue on current developments, issues and challenges in the policy field of peacebuilding. The focus is on topics that are both politically and practically relevant. The conference aims to provide impetus for the development and visibility of the policy field and to strengthen global dialogue and strategic partnerships.

Every two years, the FriEnt PBF provides an opportunity for German and international state and civil society actors in peacebuilding to meet with others and discuss challenges, emerging trends and pressing issues in the field. The aim of the conference is to build bridges between state and civil society actors, between local and global perspectives on existing approaches and partnerships, and between science and practice.
