Indigenous conflict management has been a key feature of pre- and post-colonial African societies in managing varied community disputes related to natural resources. In Zimbabwe, the Dare, the traditional court works similarly. However, there have been few insights on the effectiveness of indigenous community-based mechanisms in managing primary water conflicts. The paper argues that although there are widespread and varied water conflicts within the rural setting, the grassroots nature, combined with simple and clear procedures of the traditional court systems makes it a viable option in managing emergent primary water conflicts at the community level. There is a need to synchronise this indigenous community-based conflict management mechanism with the state-run judicial system. However, the operation of the indigenous conflict management mechanism within the framework of competitive African politics has made it vulnerable to political intrusions. Water governance, using traditional court systems would likely benefit from equal gender representation in the decision-making structures.

In recent years, the view that peacebuilding is essentially local has gained traction. Debates in the field of development research point to the potential of participation and influence for promoting effective, appropriate and legitimate developments, but post-conflict contexts offer additional challenges. Here, societal divisions infiltrate the local level and its policy-making, and participation does not necessarily offer answers to issues of voice and inclusion. This article compares participation and influence in Kenya and Lebanon, two deeply divided post-conflict countries. The study has three main findings: there are possibilities for local communities to participate in local decision-making; inclusion and ability to influence local decision-making depends on personal status; and local decision-making bodies are influenced by national dividing lines, and local participation and influence risk replicating conflictual divisions. Therefore, while participation and influence in local decision-making in post-conflict contexts is possible for some, it risks promoting further exclusion of those already marginalised, thus hindering efforts to consolidate peace and development.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the attendant need for virtual solutions have created new openings for technology to be put to the service of peace initiatives (The Economist, 2021). The United Nations and its partners have started to use natural language processing and machine learning to dialogue with thousands of individuals in local dialects to identify points of agreement in conflict settings such as Libya and Yemen (The Washington Post, 2021). Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered tools now enable conflict mediators and peacebuilders to dialogue with and poll the public in real time at scale (Financial Times, 2021).
2019冠状病毒病大流行以及随之而来的对虚拟解决方案的需求为技术为和平倡议服务创造了新的机会(《经济学人》，2021年)。联合国及其合作伙伴已经开始使用自然语言处理和机器学习，用当地方言与成千上万的人对话，以确定利比亚和也门等冲突环境中的共识点(The Washington Post, 2021)。人工智能(AI)驱动的工具现在使冲突调解者和和平建设者能够与公众进行大规模的实时对话和民意调查(金融时报，2021年)。

The article looks at women self-led organisations as embodied infrastructures supporting the lives of victim-survivors of conflict-related sexual violence in Colombia. Focusing on three elements that form the concept of women as embodied infrastructures namely, i) the roles women play as mentors and role models for other women, ii) women's work in women's services, networks, and organisations, iii) radical care, I argue that women as embodied infrastructures provide important listening and learning safe-spaces where victim-survivors can regain self-love, a political understanding of their victimisation, access peer support, gain citizenship skills, and begin to heal. By enabling victims-survivors to become agents in the process of rebuilding their lives, their livelihoods, and their wider ecologies the work of these organisations promotes gender-transformative change and is central to peacebuilding and transitional justice processes.

Violent extremism is one of the biggest problems nowadays. Particularly, some characteristics of young people make them more vulnerable to radicalisation, so different prevention strategies have been developed. However, these strategies do not always take into consideration risk and protective factors, nor the skills that professionals should have. Therefore, this research aims at identifying prevention strategies through the reinforcement of protective factors that strength resilience against violent extremism considering the skills that professionals should have. A total of 70 professionals were interviewed on risk and protective factors in seven different countries of the European Union. After categorising these factors, a network analysis showed four clusters corresponding to four different prevention strategies: ‘empowering community identities’, ‘breaking out the brick wall’, ‘dismantling the extremist dynamics’, and ‘believing in higher values’. In summary, these four prevention strategies provide a conceptual framework of the skills needed to prevent adolescents from violent extremism.

Several editors have previously compiled similar inventories involving other fields. Freedman (2010) compiled a list of 100 programs and organizations in the field of Terrorism and Counterterrorism. Van Dongen (2018) also compiled a list of 130+ major counterterrorism research centers, which includes the most influential terrorism research centers across several categories. These inventories serve as a database for researchers, with easy access and the ability to compare between various centers. Currently, the fields of peacebuilding and conflict management are broad and are increasing in size annually. To keep track of all these centers, it is crucial to have a single database that compiles information on all centers.

Disasters, including disaster-related activities, have been shown to precipitate, intensify, and lengthen violent conflicts, yet disasters have also demonstrated the potential to reduce violent conflict, encourage cooperation, and build peace. Disaster-conflict and disaster-peace literature has sought to establish causal and linear relationships, but research has not explored with the same rigour the causal mechanisms linking these phenomena in long-term processes of social–political change and how they are influenced by human actions and inactions. This research fills this gap by drawing on in-depth interviews with disaster risk reduction (DRR) professionals in 25 disaster- and conflict-affected countries in South Asia, the Middle East, and Africa to analyse the pathways leading from disasters and disaster-related activities to violent conflict and peace. The findings highlight how these pathways can be deliberately swayed towards peace potential through DRR.

Do legacies of politically motivated violence influence future or current electoral behaviour? How so? This article considers the question of the impact of violence on voter behaviour, specifically on elections that centred on issues of peace in contexts of long-running civil conflict. This study theorises the ways in which decades of violence, and continued contexts of unevenly distributed violence during elections, impacts current electoral behaviour. This article explores whether continued exposure to violence makes voters more or less conciliatory in their political preferences as expressed through electoral institutions. To do this, the article utilises the second round of voting in the 2014 and 2018 Colombian presidential elections and the 2016 plebiscite vote on the peace accords with the leftist guerrilla group Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, along with a data set that records politically motivated violent events perpetrated by insurgents, counterinsurgents, and the state forces at a municipal level from 1991 to 2012.
出于政治动机的暴力是否会影响未来或当前的选举行为?所以如何?本文审议了暴力对选民行为的影响问题，特别是对长期国内冲突背景下以和平问题为中心的选举的影响问题。这项研究将几十年的暴力以及选举期间持续不均匀的暴力背景影响当前选举行为的方式理论化。本文探讨持续暴露于暴力是否会使选民通过选举机构表达的政治偏好或多或少地和解。为了做到这一点，本文利用了2014年和2018年哥伦比亚总统选举的第二轮投票，以及2016年与左翼游击队组织哥伦比亚革命武装力量(Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia)就和平协议进行的公民投票，以及1991年至2012年期间由叛乱分子、反叛乱分子和国家部队在市级犯下的政治动机暴力事件的数据集。

This article provides an analytical case study of a participatory youth-led filmmaking project in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Using the conceptual framework of hybridity, it critically considers whether and to what extent youth centred, participatory arts projects can facilitate the emergence of a positive hybrid peace. It reflects on three themes—solidarity; creativity as politics; and participation as norm—that speak to the opportunities and challenges encountered during the project. The analysis demonstrates that while participatory arts have the potential to induce a more emancipatory vision of peace, that, and mirroring the warnings from development studies, their effects are not a given and challenges and blockages persist.

The mine action sector has struggled to demonstrate the socioeconomic benefits of mine clearance. Previous academic studies have made important contributions but have been limited in offering in-depth discussions of causal pathways. This paper seeks to fill that gap. It proposes a new framework, the Mine Clearance and Peacebuilding Synergies (MPS) framework that combines the Humanitarian Mine Action Peacebuilding Palette, the Mine Action- Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) framework and theoretical considerations from the Infrastructure as Peacebuilding framework to interrogate this interaction. Using Somaliland's post-conflict reconstruction as a case study, we analyze qualitative and quantitative data to map both the direct and indirect benefits of mine clearance in relation to infrastructure development. We find that mine clearance can influence both economic and physical reconstruction through its impact on dominant economic sectors as well as critical strategic infrastructure, including ports and roads, and demonstrate the synergies therein with an array of SDGs.
