The justice system and the security sector constitute two such power structures that experienced a great deal of activism. The launch of truth and reconciliation commissions as well as the implementation of a fair judiciary system represented a challenge for both societies that recovered from civil conflict and international stakeholders. The reform of the security sector has also proven to be a daunting task, with both successes and failures. Training local troops and forming qualified and professional police and military officers can bring stability to a precarious post-conflict environment.

This conference will have for objective to identify the best practices on these key peace building dimensions. The conference will focus more specifically on justice, security, development and state building themes. A more detailed program can be accessed here.

This conference is organised by the Conflict Research Centre, in partnership with the Peace and Conflict Studies Association of Canada (PACS-CAN) and the Centre for International Policy Studies (CIPS).
