SUMMARY:PeaceTech and Data4peace: What are we learning?
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore key insights into PeaceTech\, the interdisciplinary field using data for peace.   \nThis introductory event will draw on PSRP’s work and partnership to offer key insights and learnings from the PeaceTech team at the University of Edinburgh\, including: \n\nWhat is PeaceTech? How can technology help facilitate inclusive peace\, and what is the new potential regarding data analysis?\nData on peace processes: What are the new possibilities for data collection\, analysis\, and connectivity: what can we do with data on peace and conflict now that we couldn’t do 10 years ago?\nWhat types of interdisciplinary and research-practice-tech teams are needed to produce effective PeaceTech projects?\nWhat lessons have we learned about designing an effective collaborative PeaceTech project in the ‘data’ space?\n\nWe will share key learnings and examples from our PeaceTech work\, including our Covid-19 Ceasefires Tracker\, a publicly available digital tracking tool to examine the consequences of the coronavirus outbreak on peace processes and armed conflict across the world. The tool monitors the progress of ceasefires alongside live data on infection rates in country. The data can be viewed in a timeline format\, a search browse format\, and a map format which also includes live data on infection rates in country. \nThe University of Edinburgh’s PeaceTech team is a unique collaboration between peace builders\, data scientists\, and many others who are helping shape the PeaceTech space\, using cutting-edge technologies and data to build digital platforms that facilitate inclusive peacebuilding.  \nFeaturing Prof Christine Bell\, Dr Sanja Badanjak\, Dr Devanjan Bhattacharya\, and Fiona Knäussel from the Political Settlements Research Programme\, with special guest Dr Benjamin Bach\, Lecturer in Design Informatics and Visualization at the Bayes Centre\, School of Informatics\, University of Edinburgh\, as event chair. \nThis event will be held on Zoom. Joining instructions will be sent to registered participants. \nRegister now. \n  \nPeace Talks Series\nThis event is part of PSRP’s Peace Talks webinar series\, which will run from October 2020 – March 2021.

SUMMARY:An Introduction to the Amnesties\, Conflict and Peace Agreement Database
DESCRIPTION:How and why are amnesties used in response to conflict\, and how can choices within amnesty design complement inclusive peacebuilding? \nIn this webinar\, Prof Louise Mallinder of Queen’s University Belfast will introduce the new Amnesties\, Conflict\, and Peace Agreement Database (ACPA) that she has created in conjunction with PSRP. ACPA covers amnesties that were granted during ongoing conflicts\, as part of peace negotiations\, or in post-conflict periods between 1990-2016. Prof Mallinder’s presentation will use the findings from this database to demonstrate the diversity in how and why amnesties are used in response to conflict and to explore how choices within amnesty design can complement inclusive peacebuilding. \nRegister now on Eventbrite. The webinar will be held over Zoom\, with joining links emailed to registered participants ahead of the event. \nThis event is part of PSRP’s Peace Talks webinar series\, which will run from October 2020 – March 2021.

SUMMARY:Peace Talks: Ceasefires in a Time of Covid-19
DESCRIPTION:On 23 March 2020\, the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called for an immediate global ceasefire\, in order to tackle the threat of Covid-19\, which is recognised as posing a disproportionate risk to those in fragile and conflict affected areas. In this event\, we present insights from USIP and PSRP research tracking the causes and consequences of ceasefires declared during the Covid-19 pandemic and reflect on the potential of ceasefires to lead to a more sustainable peace process. \nPSRP will present data and insights from the Covid-19 Ceasefire Tracker\, and USIP will present its new report\, Searching for COVID-19 Ceasefires: Conflict Zone Impacts\, Needs\, and Opportunities. \nFeaturing special guest Tyler Thompson from the United States Institute of Peace\, alongside PSRP’s Dr Sanja Badanjak and Laura Wise. \n\nRegistration\nThe event will take place from 13.00-14.00 (BST).
