ABSTRACT

This chapter reviews relevant terminology, provides a more detailed explanation of peacebuilding and integrated approaches, and reviews how important analysis is in conducting intervention. It focuses on examples from international settings and provides a variety of frameworks for integrated peacebuilding. The chapter also focuses on integrated peacebuilding, which is defined as a set of processes and tools used by civil society and governmental actors to transform the relationships, culture, and institutions of society to prevent, end, and transform conflicts. As the environmental movement developed in the 1960s and 1970s, the link between environmental concerns and development became apparent. It wasn't until the 1990s, following the example set by gender, that environmental issues began to be integrated fully into development projects. The chapter also presents an overview on the key concepts discussed in this book.
