On 19 July, the International Council of Voluntary Agencies (ICVA) and Professionals in Humanitarian Assistance and Protection (PHAP) will be hosting a webinar to explore how peace actors see their role in the humanitarian-development-peace nexus – including both what humanitarian and development actors can learn from peacebuilding and how peacebuilding efforts can better work towards shared outcomes with other actors in the nexus. This event is particularly targeted to those working in international and national NGOs.

The Institution for Justice and Reconciliation (IJR) will be hosting two events this week to explore Nelson Mandela’s legacy.
