A Pathway for Peace? Federalism, Fragility and Peacebuilding

By Forum of Federations, Food4Humanity

Is federalism a solution to the challenges of building sustainable peace in fragile and conflict-affected states? Can a federal peacebuilding approach be codified into a federalism ‘pathway for peace’? We explore the application of federalism as a peacebuilding mechanism, including opportunities, limitations, and how we can achieve more sustainable results, and drawing on the experiences of three fragile states: Sudan, Somalia, and Yemen.

Joining us on this episode:

Marie-Joëlle Zahar, Professor of Political Science and Director of the Research Network on Peace Operations at the Université de Montréal.

Abdi Aynte, co-founder and Managing Director of Laasfort Consulting Group.

Mai Amir, Sudanese governance consultant and technical specialist.

This podcast is brought to you by the Forum of Federations in partnership with Food4Humanity.

Written and hosted by Liam Whittington.

Produced by Asma Zribi, Emilie Tremblay and Liam Whittington.
