Annual narrative and financial report 2020 The Pathfinders for Peaceful, Just and Inclusive Societies is a member state-led, multi-stakeholder partnership that works to accelerate the implementation of the SDG targets for peace, justice, and inclusion (SDG16+). The Pathfinders was co-founded and is hosted by NYU’s Center on International Cooperation. In September 2017, the Pathfinders launched the Roadmap for Peaceful, Just and Inclusive Societies.

Following publication of the Justice for All report, the Pathfinders for Justice program was created, a four-year effort that will translate the Task Force’s recommendations into action, building on CIC’s comparative advantage as a convener and a catalyst of the shift towards people-centered justice.

This narrative report covers our activities from January 1st - August 31st, 2020 as stipulated in the grant decision. This is a relatively short reporting period, because of the alignment of reporting requirements to NYU’s fiscal year which runs from September-August. The grant decision was taken on May 18th, 2020. In a year unlike any other in recent memory, the Pathfinders for Justice, with its many partners has:

▪ Developed and launched the Shared Strategy for Justice for All, which brings together a growing group of organizations to align their activities and work towards three agreed priorities in order to accelerate implementation of the justice-related goals and targets of the 2030 agenda over the next four years.
▪ Created a series of briefings and reports on Justice in a Pandemic with early analysis that helped articulate how people-centered justice is critical to pandemic response and recovery. The briefings proposed practical strategies for justice leaders as they respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
▪ Strengthened collaboration among a core group of partners and thought-leaders on people-centered justice by developing the Justice in a Pandemic series in partnership with over 50 partners, policy makers, practitioners and academics.
▪ Helped spur the interest of countries and development partners on the importance of closing the justice gap and the potential of people-centered justice to build peaceful and inclusive societies. Engaged donors, such as USAID, to advance people-centered justice in their programming.
▪ Contributed to the increased spotlight on the widening justice gap for women and the need to mobilize broadly to defend previously won gains and progress for women´s rights.
▪ Created the foundation for the different workstreams and partnerships at the core of the four-year Pathfinders for Justice program, through strategic discussions with different partners and by building the team in CIC as well as the broader justice team, which includes the core consultants.
▪ Maintained the momentum on Justice for All throughout 2020 with the organization of presentations and events and most importantly the regional meetings in West-Africa and the Asia-Pacific region and the Global Week for Justice.

Contribuer à établir la paix et le développement durable dans le secteur minier artisanal dans l’est de la RDC Renforcement des capacités des communautés locales, des organisations de la société civile, des coopératives et des services techniques, pour accroître leur contribution à la paix et du développement durable dans l’est de la RDC, en améliorant la situation des droits humains et les conditions de travail dans le secteur minier artisanale, en augmentant la connaissance sur les causes des conflits et la résilience des communautés minières, et en renforçant la gouvernance participative du secteur. Le programme à l’ambition de contribuer à la restauration de la paix et l’établissement d’un développement durable dans les provinces de l’Ituri, Nord-Kivu, Sud-Kivu, Maniema, Lualaba et Haut-Katanga de la République Démocratique du Congo (RDC), en améliorant la situation des droits humains, y compris la promotion du travail décent, dans le secteur de l’exploitation minière artisanale et à petite échelle, et en renforçant la gouvernance (participative) du secteur. 

La paix durable n’est que réalisable par une résolution durable des conflits qui est basée sur une compréhension holistique des dynamiques et des causes profondes des conflits, et qui prend en compte les sensibilités de toutes les parties prenantes, de toutes les préoccupations des communautés concernées. 

Une analyse approfondie du financement de l’insécurité à l’est de la RDC par l’exploitation et la commercialisation des minerais s’impose, en tenant compte du contexte plus large de la RDC, y compris la faiblesse et instabilité économique de l’état, la mauvaise gouvernance, les disputes foncières, les inégalités sociales historiques entre différentes communautés (des facteurs que se trouvent à la base de plusieurs conflits violents et des violations des droits humains). 

Une amélioration de la gouvernance, la transparence et des pratiques responsables – par rapport aux droits humains, travail décent et l’environnement - dans le secteur minier, es nécessaire afin de promouvoir des conditions socio-économiques des travailleurs et un développement durable, des préalables fondamentaux pour consolider la paix. La formalisation du secteur minier artisanal est un élément indispensable d’un complexe processus de réformes qui mènera finalement à un développement durable dans l’est de la RDC. - 5 OSC (30% du personnel impliqué sera féminin : partenaires pour 1) la recherche, la sensibilisation des mineurs, les audits auprès des coopératives ; et 2) la cartographie pour augmenter la transparence dans le secteur du cobalt.

Promote stakeholders in Belgium and beyond as champions of peace and sustainable development Policymakers, private sector actors, and development stakeholders in Belgium, as well as key actors at the European, international, and multilateral levels apply policies and practices that:  

(1) support and regulate sustainable business practices,  
(2) mainstream conflict sensitivity and/or integrate peacebuilding,

to shape interventions that are conducive to durable peace and sustainable development in fragile and conflict-affected situations (FCAS). Fragility and conflict are the most significant obstacles to achieving the SDGs. Only 20% of fragile and conflict-affected countries are on track to achieve SDG targets by 2030, with millions of people living at risk of being left behind. Hence, a focus on SDG acceleration in fragile and conflict-affected settings (FCAS) is a prerequisite for meeting the promise of Agenda 2030.

The outcome, implemented by International Peace Information Service and Search for Common Ground, contributes to durable peace and sustainable development in FCAS through three key approaches: Sustainable business practices, peacebuilding, and conflict sensitivity.

To promote the use of these approaches across FCAS, we will engage the following target groups: policymakers, private sector actors (natural resources, digital, arms trade sectors), development stakeholders (e.g. NGOs, CSOs, networks, agencies, and multi-stakeholder initiatives) in Belgium and beyond, as well as the Belgian public.

Activities...(+9 characters extra in FundHub text) - Policymakers in Belgium;
- Policy actors at European, international, and multilateral levels including the EU;
- MSI, platforms, agencies, networks;
- Private actors in the natural resource, arms trade, and digital sectors in Belgium and selected OECD countries;
- Belgian federations in relevant sectors;
- Belgian NGOs/CSOs working on peace and conflict;
- Selected NGOs/CSOs from FCAS;
- Other Belgian/international NGOs/CSOs and platforms as relevant;
- The Belgian media and general public.
