Global Trends: Prospects for Development and Peace

How can international cooperation succeed amid changing global power structures? To address this question, INEF and the Development and Peace Foundation (sef:) have launched the publication series “Global Trends: Prospects for Development and Peace”. The series demonstrates that rules-based cooperation remains necessary and possible in order to tackle a multitude of prevalent global challenges. Focused on longer-term trends, the individual contributions explore the prospects of joint global problem-solving in four areas: Global Governance for development (1), peace and security (2), the global economy (3), and the environment and natural resources (4). 

Current Issue

In the first issue Multilateral Cooperation for People and Planet, selected experts examine the prospects for multilateral cooperation across four key topics:

► A human-centred digital transformation 

► The future of multilateral peace operations 

► Due diligence in global value chain regulation

► Water diplomacy as a tool for conflict transformation
