"Unless Colombian NGOs successfully convey their multidimensional understanding of peace to the international development community, the paradoxical situation could quickly arise in which overseas funding for their work is ultimately linked to the perpetuation of the armed conflict, not to the attainment of a lasting peace."
This conclusion of Vera Grabe in her contribution to this publication captures in a nutshell the complexity of peacebuilding and its relationship to development work and their external supporters. At the same time, it echoes the main conclusions of two international workshops jointly organised by FriEnt and the Center for Peacebuilding (KOFF) at swisspeace, which focused on results orientation in peacebuilding: "Results orientation in its currently practiced form is more of a hindrance than a help for achieving better results".
