Our theme for the month of June is
Silencing the Guns

Continuing with our theme, "Silencing the Guns," this week we will focus on major conflicts and their implications. We will explore significant conflicts across the continent, examining their impact on communities, economies and political stability. Understanding these implications is crucial for developing effective strategies to address and resolve these conflicts.

Additionally, we will investigate why initiatives aimed at silencing the guns have been failing. Analysing the shortcomings and obstacles faced by past and current efforts, will help us gain valuable insights into what needs to change to create a lasting peace.

This month's Policy Paper will solidify the reasons why the guns must be silenced. Join us in this collaborative endeavor as we define why the chorus of peace, unity and harmony must rise to ensure a better and more prosperous future for Africans.
