Specialist conference
Details
The Great Lakes region is associated with fragile state paradigms, ongoing conflicts with ethnic connotations and involvement of armed groups from neighbouring countries. The conference seeks to assess against the conflict structures to what extent international, national as well as bilateral initiatives contribute towards the establishment of peace and stability or what else might be needed in order to enhance the capacity of the states in the region to fulfil their basic functions. Are we doing enough? Do we do the right thing?
