Nabni – European Institute of Peace Strategic Partnership

The Nabni Building for Peace Facility is pleased to announce a new strategic partnership with Brussels-based European Institute of Peace (EIP), marking an important step in strengthening learning, knowledge exchange and global engagement for the Facility as part of its key pillars of work.

The partnership brings together two organisations with complementary expertise and a shared commitment to supporting locally-led peacebuilding and bottom-up approaches to post-conflict recovery and development. The collaboration aims to contribute to stronger evidence, learning and dialogue across the humanitarian-development-peace (HDP) nexus, building on the joint expertise of Nabni and its partners in Iraq, Yemen and Syria and EIP’s experience in dialogue, mediation, process facilitation and policy engagement in the Middle East region and beyond.

The collaboration will focus on translating practical experience into evidence that can foster exchange between practitioners, analysts and decision-makers. The partnership also creates new opportunities to jointly engage with regional and international policy discussions, communities of practice and sector discussions. By amplifying lessons emerging from the MENA region and connecting them with global fora, Nabni and EIP seek to continue to strengthen dialogue on effective, locally led approaches to peacebuilding and development.

As the Nabni Facility continues to support partnerships across the MENA region, this collaboration reflects its commitment not only to financing and accompanying partners in-country, but also to contributing to wider sector learning and knowledge exchange through evidence-generation and collaboration.

The European Institute of Peace is an independent organisation working globally to design and deliver sustainable peace processes and agreements. EIP provides practical experience, technical expertise and policy advice on conflict resolution. To find out more about EIP, please visit: https://www.eip.org
