Conflict sensitive conservation support
1
The International Conflict Sensitivity Programme supports organisations with a humanitarian, development or environmental mission to strengthen how they operate in conflict-affected contexts and how they can contribute to social cohesion and peacebuilding. We support environmental actors to develop new policies and practices to address conflict risks in their operations and to pioneer peacebuilding approaches as part of their biodiversity and climate work.
