This toolkit aims to assist anyone who wishes to start a campaign or organize an activity around issues of peace and conflict. It was designed in particular for members of the Global Partnership for the Prevention of Armed Conflict (GPPAC), and focuses on awareness raising activities surrounding the UN International Day of Peace. However, we believe large parts of it will also be useful for other civil society organizations and other campaigns and activities in this field. It includes campaign basics, facts and figures you can use in your campaign, strategies you can employ in order for your campaign to be successful, and ideas for taking action such as public events you could organize and ways to engage the media. Finally, it lists a number of other sources that could be helpful to you in raising awareness on conflict prevention and peacebuilding.

This is the current version of the toolkit, but will be continuously expanding and improving on it. If you have any comments, additions, suggestions or case studies that you would like to share, please send them to Charlotte Crockett at This email address is being protected from spam bots, you need Javascript enabled to view it
