About This Paper
USIP convened an expert panel of scholars and researchers over a four-month period in 2023–2024 to explore lessons learned from the management of conflicts in prior periods of global turbulence. This is the second paper in a three-part series from the convenings and discusses the state of peacemaking globally and for multilateral partnerships and institutions. The series was designed and managed by the Learning, Evaluation, and Research team at USIP’s Center for Thematic Excellence.
