This was evidenced by recent open debates at the UN Security Council (UNSC) and meetings at the Peacebuilding Commission (PBC) (for further details, please refer to the &#8220;Background&#8221; section below).

For example, in August, a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/press.un.org\/en\/2024\/sc15796.doc.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">UNSC Open Debate focused on conflict prevention<\/a>\u00a0was organised under Sierra Leone\u2019s UNSC presidency. Furthermore, member states agreed in the Pact for the Future to strengthen and implement existing national prevention strategies and consider developing them where they do not exist. The Pact also notes that such strategies should be voluntary, reflect national priorities, and address the root causes of violence and armed conflict. It states that member states should receive support through the whole UN system, including the PBC, upon request. The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/peacebuilding\/content\/2025-review-un-peacebuilding-architecture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Peacebuilding Architecture Review 2025<\/a>\u00a0will be an opportunity to continue building on this momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in learning more about CIC\u2019s work on prevention and national prevention strategies, please check out the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cic.nyu.edu\/program\/prevention-peacebuilding\/prevention-at-the-united-nations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CIC website<\/a>\u00a0and its latest publications including the ones linked in the box on the right-hand side of this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Background<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>At the UNSC, for example, Japan organised an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/press.un.org\/en\/2024\/sc15623.doc.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">open debate on conflict prevention<\/a>\u00a0during their Presidency on 13 March 2024.
