This webinar will connect higher-level policy debates on the securitization of the youth peacebuilding agenda to debates on youth engagement with local-level armed conflict, insecurity, and destruction of heritage. Speakers will discuss global policies and give focused case studies of Syria and Mozambique.
The webinar will be relevant for academics, policy makers, and practitioners working in settings affected by violent, armed conflict, outlining key research questions and findings, and implications for future policy and practice.
The webinar is the fourth in our webinar series on youth in Africa and MENA region, which is linked to the IDS Strategic Research Initiative ‘Ensuring decent work and inclusive politics for youth’ and is also part of IDS’ European Engagement Initiative.
