Arab Center Washington DC (ACW) and the MENA Programme at the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) convened a panel of experts to examine neglected conflicts in #Libya, #Sudan, and #Yemen. Panelists discussed the current status of the conflicts and warring parties in Libya, Sudan, and Yemen, the challenges to pursuing and reaching a political solution, and recommendations for ending the stalemates and moving to post-conflict stages. How have shifting geopolitical alliances impacted regional and international engagements in each of Libya, Sudan, and Yemen? What role do foreign actors play in fueling or mitigating these wars? What are the pathways and prerequisites for a constructive and inclusive political process? How can transitional governance be structured to prevent renewed conflict? What mechanisms could ensure accountability for war crimes and justice for victims? How can economic policies, including resource management (e.g., Libya’s oil, Sudan’s gold, and Yemen’s ports), support post-war recovery? What future scenarios could unfold if these conflicts remain unresolved? And what steps can regional and global actors take to shift toward lasting peace?
