Summary
This edited volume harnesses African expertise to examine the local and global dimensions of peace. It is an outcome of a workshop in Nairobi, Kenya that convened African academics and practitioners with diverse specialisations. The authors' contributions foreground local voices across a broad scope of inquiry, including rural community structures, health, trauma, sexual violence, peacekeeping and cybersecurity. African knowledge is essential to understanding peace on the continent -- the complexities of conflict and insecurity, the lived experiences of individuals and communities, and their responses to such phenomena. This analytical approach underpins the book, creating fertile ground to identify and develop innovations that hold the promise for sustainable African solutions. Joseph Adero Ngala is Professor of International Relations and Diplomacy at the United States International University Africa, Kenya. Rachel Julian is Professor of Peace Studies at Leeds Beckett University, UK. Jonathan Henriques is Research Fellow at the South Sudan Center for Strategic and Policy Studies, South Sudan.
