Survey among local peacebuilders: What changes in funding do you experience as a consequence of the pandemic?

Thank you for choosing to answer this questionnaire. It will only take approximately 5 minutes to answer the 9 questions.

Your responses will provide us with a strong basis for conveying messages to funders about the implications of the pandemic for access to funding for local peacebuilding. We will compile the findings from this survey with insights that we have drawn from consultations with local peacebuilders during the past month, and publish a summary report to be used for advocacy for support to local peacebuilding.

Your answer is anonymous and the software used apply a very strict privacy policy (https://da.surveymonkey.com/mp/legal/privacy-policy/?ut_source=footer).
