Conflict Prevention

EDM number 1248 in 2008-09, proposed by Simon Hughes on 01/04/2009.
Categorised under the topic of International development.

That this House recognises that for every dollar spent globally on conflict prevention nearly two thousand times as much is spent on defence and the military; applauds the many local initiatives around the world that help to prevent conflict; calls on the Government to carry out a study into the cost-effectiveness of local and regional peace building initiatives in the run up to the Global Summit on Security and Peace Building in 2010; and encourages the Government through the Department for International Development and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to give greater priority to conflict prevention work and in particular to fund from existing resources more local conflict prevention initiatives.

This motion has been signed by a total of 83 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
