🌍 This week, the Geneva Peacebuilding Platform is present at the 2025 Paris Peace Forum at the Palais de Chaillot!
Paris Peace Forum and Geneva Peace Week are vital for fostering dialogue and collective action for peace.
On 23 October 2025, the Geneva Peacebuilding Platform co-organized with the IHL Centre an essential discussion on the thin lines between abusive interpretation of core IHL norms and actual violations of the law, notably in the context of the Israeli-Gaza conflict.
📣 Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting during the @gpplatform.ch, in partnership w/the Permanent Missions of Canada & The Gambia & @theictj.bsky.social, a panel discussion on ways to promote a victim-centered approach in The #Gambia's #transitional #justice process.
Geneva Peace Week was an inspiring week of global dialogue on urgent peacebuilding issues.
From water diplomacy to preventing electoral violence, advancing food security, promoting trade for peace & IHL, @interpeace.org was delighted to contribute. Let’s keep the momentum going.
