SUMMARY:Coffee and Conversation
DESCRIPTION:<h2>Challenges to Conflict Mediation in a Fragmenting International System</h2><p>The speaker will outline some of the major international developments that have challenged the practice of conflict mediation in recent years – including the return of geopolitics, the proliferation of armed conflicts, erosion of long-accepted norms in international relations, and increasing competition in the mediation space. He will reflect on how mediators will need to adapt to this changing context - which presents opportunities as well as challenges - in order to ensure that their peacemaking tools remain fit for purpose for the dangerous decades ahead.</p><h3>Speaker</h3><ul><li>Paul Dziatkowiec, Director of Mediation and Peace Support, Geneva Centre for Security Policy.</li></ul><h3>Contact</h3><p><strong>Walid Hammam</strong><br><a href="mailto:walid_hammam@wcfia.harvard.edu">walid_hammam@wcfia.harvard.edu</a></p>
