Construire la paix de l’intérieur Phase II : Soutenir la médiation interne pour la transformation durable des conflitsNotes d’orientation
L’objectif de ces brèves notes d’orientation est d’informer les institutions nationales, régionales et internationales sur des sujets clés liés à la médiation interne et d’éclairer l’élaboration de politiques plus holistiques et plus favorables aux médiateurs internes. Bien que les femmes soient toujours confrontées à des obstacles culturels, logistiques et sécuritaires lors de leur participation aux médiations locales, elles sont en mesure de jouer un rôle essentiel et unique dans la médiation des conflits familiaux, fonciers, socio-économiques et environnementaux, contribuant ainsi à un taux élevé de réussite des accords de médiation. La valeur de la création et du soutien de réseaux (informels) de médiateurs internes est essentielle dans des milieux qui n’accueillent pas toujours favorablement les interventions de la société civile et où des réseaux plus souples et plus agiles peuvent servir de mécanismes d’alerte et de réponse précoces, augmentant ainsi les chances de parvenir à une paix durable et transformatrice.

Peacebuilding and disinformationTaking stock and planning ahead
Disinformation is a global challenge that undermines trust within societies and, ultimately, peace. This study investigates how peacebuilders can help combat disinformation by using their expertise in conflict analysis, mediation, and dialogue. It also explores the role of technology in spreading disinformation and identifies opportunities for peacebuilders to intervene. The study emphasises the need for them to focus on addressing the root causes of both disinformation and conflict, rather than simply responding to their symptoms. It advocates for incorporating cognitive science into peacebuilding efforts and for adopting a more interdisciplinary approach to tackle these complex issues.
