The Environment, Climate, Conflict, and Peace (ECCP) is a community of practice (CoP or community) that aims to strengthen networking and community building on environmental peacebuilding, climate security, and other related topics through collaboration, dialogue, and learning between institutions and individuals both in Geneva and around the globe. 

The community was created in early 2020 and is managed by the Geneva Peacebuilding Platform, as a part of its workstream on community management. Over the past three years, the community has grown from about 40 Geneva-based participants to over 500 participants around the world. Following the completion of its third year of work at the end of 2022, the ECCP CoP partnered with Universalia from January to April 2023 to conduct a collaborative and utilization-focused evaluation of the community. The evaluation explored questions related to the community’s relevance, coherence, efficiency, effectiveness, impact, and sustainability. Its methods included surveys, interviews, and document review.
