In recent years, the UN counter-terrorism architecture has grown like no other part of the UN system – often at the expense of peacebuilding, human rights and civic space. Our new @war_pod looks at this, and how civil society can push for accountability. https://t.co/5gMvtCgsbu

On this #InternationalPeaceDay, we are reminded that peace is not passive. It is resistance, action & hope.
As one of our partners said, “Peace is achieved when people's needs are met: health, education, clean water, aid, livelihood, shelter & services.”
