During Parents’ Weekend, Director of the Institute for Global Leadership and Professor of the Practice of International Politics at The Fletcher School Abiodun Williams spoke about his experiences with preventive peacekeeping and the role of International Institutions in facilitating peace and justice across the world.
Highlighting his personal experience with the preventive peacekeeping mission in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Professor Williams laid out not only the probability of saving more human lives through this approach, but also the resources and monetary benefits that could be attained. Additionally, post-conflict reconciliation is further facilitated as preventive peacekeeping hinders the formation of cleavages amongst groups and organizations in society.
