Peacebuilding Commission Agenda

In the enabling resolutions establishing the Peacebuilding Commission, resolutions 60/180 and 1645 (2005) of 20 December 2005, the United Nations General Assembly and the Security Council decided a country can be included on the PBC’s agenda via:


  1. Requests for advice from the Security Council;
  2. Requests for advice from the ECOSOC or the General Assembly with the consent of a concerned Member State in exceptional circumstances on the verge of lapsing or relapsing into conflict and with which the Security Council is not seized;
  3. Requests for advice from Member States in exceptional circumstances on the verge of lapsing or relapsing into conflict and which are not on the agenda of the Security Council;
  4. Requests for advice from the Secretary-General.

The Commission is likely to deal only with countries emerging from conflict, once a peace accord has been concluded and a minimum degree of security exists. Countries would be expected to express an interest in appearing before the PBC. A referral against the wish of the Government is unlikely to take place.

At present, Burundi, and Sierra Leone and Guinea-Bissau are on the agenda of the Commission.
