Conflict Prevention, Conflict Resolution and Peacebuilding APPG

First Registered: 12/02/2025 • Last updated on: 13/04/2026

The APPG will provide a forum for the discussion and analysis of conflict prevention, conflict resolution and peacebuilding, both in specific conflicts and globally; and to build cross-party consensus around effective approaches and the need for strategic prioritisation of conflict prevention.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
