In August, the CSP team gathered in Copenhagen for three days of reflection, conversation and looking ahead. On the fourth day, our board joined us for a seminar. We came together at an important moment in CSP’s journey. A change in leadership had opened space to build on what we have learned, bring fresh perspectives to our work and ask where CSP can make its strongest contribution in the years ahead.
Conducive Space for Peace and Robert Bosch Stiftung convened an informal Chatham House roundtable in Berlin on 7 May 2026, bringing together civil society practitioners and thinkers working across Germany and Europe on peace, democracy, and civic space.
After nearly a decade at the helm of the organisation she founded, Mie Roesdahl has chosen to step down from her role with CSP to turn her attention to new passions and projects close to her heart. Mie founded CSP in 2016, bringing over two decades of experience as a peacebuilding and human rights practitioner across Africa, Asia and Europe, including her previous roles as Secretary General of Oxfam IBIS and Department Director at the Danish Institute for Human Rights.
I 2024 dedikerede Conducive Space for Peace betydelige kræfter til RESPACE-initiativet – Reimagining Equitable Global Spaces and Infrastructures for Sustainable Peace. Initiativet undersøger, hvordan fremtidigt globalt samarbejde kan udfolde sig, herunder en gentænkning af den nuværende globale styring og bistandsarkitektur, med fokus på at forestille sig samarbejde ud over det eksisterende system. Året bød på udviklingen af Scenarier for 2035 samt internationale samlinger i multilaterale fora som FN’s Fremtidstopmøde og CSO-dialogen, og med civilsamfundet i Vestafrika, Europa og Østafrika. De primære donorer til CSP’s aktiviteter i 2024 var Humanity United og Robert Bosch Stiftung.
In 2024, Conducive Space for Peace dedicated significant efforts to the RESPACE initiative – Reimagining Equitable Global Spaces and Infrastructures for Sustainable Peace. The initiative explores how future global collaboration could unfold, including rethinking current global governance and the aid architecture, with a focus on imagining collaboration beyond the existing system. The year saw the development of Scenarios for 2035, as well as international convenings in multilateral spaces such as the UN Summit of the Future and the CSO Dialogue, and with civil society in West Africa, Europe, and East Africa. Primary funders of CSP’s activities in 2024 were Humanity United and the Robert Bosch Foundation.
