SUMMARY:Finding Peace in Somalia – the Galkaio 'local' agreement

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.
