Join my talk “Prospects for Peace in Cameroon’s ‘Anglophone Crisis'” next Friday 4/21 noon Eastern

On Friday, April 21 at 12:00 noon Eastern, I’ll be giving a talk (via Zoom) titled “Prospects for Peace in Cameroon’s ‘Anglophone Crisis'” as part of the Kelman Seminar on International Conflict Analysis and Resolution series of the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School. This is an under-reported but bloody conflict that has raged for over five years, pitting those in the former British Southern Cameroons (most of Cameroon fell under a French trusteeship) against the central national government. I’ll review the origins of the conflict and the latest peacemaking developments, drawing on my recent trip to Cameroon and ongoing work on the conflict through the NGO Pathfinders4Peace. I’ll discuss challenges of getting to the table particularly between state and nonstate armed actors. Click here for more info and here to register.
