SUMMARY:Book Talk on ‘African Peace - Regional Norms from the OAU to the AU’
DESCRIPTION:The Edinburgh Centre for Constitutional Law presents: \nBook Talk on ‘African Peace – Regional Norms from the OAU to the AU’\nSpeaker: Dr Kathryn Nash\, Chancellor’s Fellow\, Edinburgh Law School \nDiscussant: Dr Sara Dorman\, Senior Lecturer in Politics and IR\, University of Edinburgh \nAbout the event\nAfrican regional organizations have played leading roles in constructing collective conflict management rules for the continent\, but these rules or norms have not been static. Currently\, the African Union (AU) deploys monitors\, authorizes peace support operations\, and actively engages to resolve internal conflicts. Just a few decades ago\, these actions would have been deeply controversial under the Organization of African Unity (OAU). What changed to allow for this transformation in the way the African regional organization approaches peace and security? \nAbout the speaker\nDr Kathryn Nash is a Chancellor’s Fellow at the University of Edinburgh Law School. She completed her PhD at SOAS University of London. Her research focuses on norms\, the role of regions in the international community\, and peace and security issues. Prior to beginning her PhD\, Dr Nash worked for the U.S. Department of State in the Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations. She has a Master’s degree in conflict resolution from Georgetown University and a Bachelor’s degree from the George Washington University in International relations. \nEvent Link\nRegister on Zoom

SUMMARY:Channeling Local Realities – Civil Society and Power Structures in Syria\, Yemen and Libya
DESCRIPTION:How can civil society best contribute to conflict management in the world’s most fragile and conflict-affected settings\, despite (or thanks to) an ongoing pandemic? Whilst already active in Yemen and Libya’s fragile contexts\, the Civil Society Platform for Peacebuilding and Statebuilding (CSPPS) expands its scope of work to Syria in collaboration with the Political Settlements Research Programme (PSRP) of the University of Edinburgh over the course of 2021. \nCan COVID-19 be seen as a tool of conflict or opportunity for peace in these contexts? How does one manage and build peace as civil society actors in countries with fragile and/or fragmented institutions and unsafe power structures? This session offers an opportunity for peer exchange among local peacebuilding practitioners and researchers in Syria\, Libya and Yemen\, sharing best practices and challenges met in their efforts for peace and sustainable development. \nView full event details. \nHosted by the Civil Society Platform for Peacebuilding and Statebuilding (CSPPS)\, the Covid Collective\, and the Political Settlements Research Programme at the University of Edinburgh as part of the FriEnt Peacebuilding Forum. \nSpeakers\nAbdullah El Hafi: Local Administrations Council Unit (LACO)\, Syria\nDr. Juline Beaujouan: Political Settlements Research Programme (PSRP)\, Edinburgh\nEyas Ghreiz: Researcher and consultant\, Syria\nMaged Sultan: Youth Without Borders Organization for Development (YWBOD)\, Yemen\nZorgh Madi: Tamazight Women’s Movement\, Libya \nModerator\nPeter van Sluijs: Civil Society Platform for Peacebuilding and Statebuilding (CSPPS)
