The Peace and Security Funders Group is a network of foundations and individual philanthropists investing in peace and global security. We maintain an informed, engaged, and collegial community of funders. 

Funding locally-led peacebuilding

Peacebuilding results are often the strongest when local peacebuilders define problems and solutions, and determine outcomes, goals, and timelines. Based on their experience supporting locally-led peacebuilding in conflict zones around the world, Members of PSFG's Locally-Led Peacebuilding Working Group collaborated to create "Guiding Principles for Funding Locally-Led Peacebuilding." These guiding principles can be the basis of best practices for all funders, not just those who focus on locally-led peacebuilding.

supporting local peace work is more urgent than ever

PSFG Program Director Cath Thompson’s piece “In Transformational Moments, Supporting Local Peace Work is More Urgent than Ever” explores how funders can use this pandemic as an opportunity to fund better now and beyond this crisis.
