peace summit

Conflict resolution meeting

A peace summit is a high-level meeting between leaders of nations or factions in conflict, aimed at negotiating an end to hostilities or resolving disputes.

The term implies both the gravity of the participants—heads of state, not lower officials—and the aspirational goal: World leaders gathered for a peace summit in Geneva.

Summits may produce treaties, ceasefires, or nothing at all.
