Weak States and Extremism in the Sahel and Maghreb
EVENT DETAILS
DATE Wednesday, April 12, 2017
TIME 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
LOCATION 1779 Massachusetts Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20036
Crises and upheaval in the Maghreb and the Sahel have altered the regional security terrain. Security challenges are increasingly becoming entwined, and many are becoming more pronounced amongst at-risk border communities in marginalized peripheries and rural communities. This day-long conference brings together leading scholars from around the world to address the key security and governance challenges in the Maghreb and Sahel. Panelists will examine the interaction of the expanding horizon of insecurity with conflicts, political vacuums, and Western response policy. They will also discuss the broader ramifications of the trends for peace and development in both regions.

This event is co-hosted with the African Peacebuilding Network of the Social Science Research Council.
