Abstract:
Violent conflicts function as disincentives for sustainable socioeconomic development in conflict-prone societies, especially in the Global South. Existing studies focus largely on economic, political, and social triggers of violent conflicts—cultural factors are often not considered. This article studies the Niger Delta region of Nigeria, to investigate the importance of cultural factors in the cycle of violence. Analyzing field data collected in conflict-impacted communities, it is argued that an interplay of political, social, economic, and environmental drivers has engendered violent confl

Despite the reduction in interstate conflicts and an increase in intrastate conflicts in Africa, the character of the state cannot be seen to have displayed sensitivity to these changes.

In South African municipalities, there has been a coexistence between elected and traditional leaders for decades. However, this coexistence has often been marked by numerous conflicts. These conflicts take different forms and dimensions; while priority has been given to violent conflicts, these conflicts escalate and rescale when not dealt with. However, it appears priority has been given to violent conflicts, making it critical to understand and deal with all forms of conflicts before they escalate. Therefore, this study examined the nature of the conflict in the Greater Giyani municipality

An alternative theoretical framework, the Contingency framework of negotiation and mediation was therefore, constructed. This model suggests that negotiation and mediation are conceptually and emp

Based on a survey of activities in the period between 1990 and 2002, a framework for categorising and describing these interventions is applied according to basic functions in four ‘grand strategies’ of ‘peace-making’, ‘peace-keeping’, ‘pe

Abstract:
This Working Paper analyses how violent conflict can enhance or reduce pre-existing forms of marginalisation and second, how new forms of marginalisation emerge as a result of violent conflict. To do so, we focus on the province of Tanganyika in the DRC, where the so-called ‘Twa-Bantu’ violent conflict has been disrupting the education sector since 2012, and secondarily on the province of Ituri, which has been affected by repeated armed conflicts since the 1990s. We use a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative data collection methods and several months of qualitative fieldwork. The stu

Abstract:
Many of the most pressing conflicts across sub-Saharan Africa today—including violent extremism, sexual and gender-based violence, pastoralist/farmer conflicts, and criminal banditry—are shaped by local, community-level drivers. Despite these local drivers, however, international peacebuilding approaches often ignore or neglect bottom-up, grassroots strategies for addressing them. Often, international efforts to contribute to the prevention and management of local conflicts depend heavily on large-scale, expensive, and external interventions like peacekeepers, while under-investing in or by-pa

Abstract:
This rapid literature review finds that while the African Union (AU) has successfully established a framework for peace and security and demonstrated diplomatic influence, its effectiveness is mixed. Evaluations indicate partial success in addressing a portion of violent conflicts through diplomacy and peace operations. Strengths include its legitimacy, comprehensive approach to peacebuilding, and willingness to mandate civilian protection in peace support operations. A 2018 EU Court of Auditors evaluation found the AU's African Peace and Security Architecture (APSA) framework addressed a sign

Abstract:
West Africa is widely cited as a hotspot of climate change and insecurity. This SIPRI Insights uses a systematic literature review of academic research to build a better understanding of the relationship between climate change and violent conflict in the region. Its findings are structured around four established ‘pathways’ of climate insecurity: (a) worsening livelihood conditions; (b) increasing migration and changing pastoral mobility patterns; (c) tactical considerations by armed groups; and (d) elite exploitation of local grievances. The literature review highlights a number of important

The capacity-building workshop on Preventing/Countering Violent Extremism, on which this Practitioners’ Guide is based, came at the right time for the Governing Board, Regional Peace Councils, Regional Executive Secretaries and Management of the Head Office of the National Peace Council, considering the threats posed by terrorism and violent extremism in West Africa and the Sahel and in other neighbouring countries. Even though Ghana has consistently been celebrated as a stable democracy, growing fears of the spread of extremist groups across the sub-region — given the porous borders — have he

Abstract:
Violent extremism in the Western Balkans takes many forms, from Western Balkans foreign fighters recruited to participate in conflicts abroad, including in the Middle East and Ukraine; to ethno-nationalist organizations that spread inter-ethnic hatred, some emanating from and glorifying legacies of conflict spanning back to the breakup of the former Yugoslavia and regional conflicts in the 1990s; to chauvinism and anti-EU and anti-NATO ideas that emerge to become even more serious and with greater consequences for the region and socio-political cohesion and dynamics.

Abstract:
As climate change intensifies in many parts of the world, more and more policymakers are concerned with its effects on human security and violence. From Lake Chad to the Philippines, including Afghanistan and Syria, some violent extremist (VE) groups such as Boko Haram and the Islamic State exploit crises and conflicts resulting from environmental stress to recruit more followers, expand their influence and even gain territorial control. In such cases, climate change may be described as a “risk multiplier” that exacerbates a number of conflict drivers. Against this backdrop, this case study lo
