Morphology
peacemongering + effort
The phrase is compositionally built from 'peace' + the productive suffix/compound pattern '-mongering' plus 'effort', so its sense ('an effort to promote peace') follows directly from the parts and parallels transparent formations like 'scaremongering'. Although 'peacemongering' is rare, the morphological logic is regular and a B1 learner who knows the constituent elements would infer the meaning.
Etymology
Peacemongering effort may come from the idea of a monger, an old word for a seller, so picture someone offering peace like goods in a market. That's why a peacemongering effort means actions that try to spread or 'sell' peace and bring people together.
