Annual Report 2011: Moving Forward

The beginning of 2011 marked the transformation of the european Centre for Conflict Prevention (eCCP) into the Global Partnership for the Prevention of Armed Confl ict (GPPAC) foundation. The passing of a notary deed confi rmed amendments to the statutes of the foundation, changing its name into GPPAC and establishing the GPPAC international Steering Group (iSG) as the body nominating its board members. it was the fi nal step in a process that began in the iSG meeting in Davao in October 2009, when the iSG asked the eCCP Board to combine eCCP and GPPAC structures into one confi guration of governance, to the benefi t of GPPAC.
