Conflict prevention must be the business of business leaders

The IBLF [International Business Leaders Forum], in conjunction with International Alert and Social Accountability International, produced a unique publication 'The Business of Peace'. It considers the role of the private sector as a partner in conflict prevention and resolution, (and is in increasing demand as threats of regional conflict and global tension have risen in recent weeks). It charts the case and management practice for business engagement in the three stages - conflict prevention, crisis management and post-conflict reconstruction.
