Show Notes

Why do peacebuilders sometimes succeed and sometimes fail, even within the same country? Why can organizations not guarantee the same results from the same policies? In her newly published book, Global Governance and Local Peace: Accountability and Performance in International Peacebuilding, Susanna Campbell dives into why peacebuilding organizations often fail and presents one of the keys to success: local actors that force organizations to stay accountable to local peacebuilding goals.

Speakers: Susanna Campbell Assistant Professor, School of International Service, American University

Michael Barnett Professor, International Affairs and Political Science, The George Washington University

Mike Jobbins Senior Director of Partnerships and Engagement, Search for Common Ground

Kate Somvongsiri Acting Deputy Assistant Administrator, Bureau of Democracy, Conflict, and Humanitarian Assistance, U.S. Agency for International Development

Leanne Erdberg, moderator Director, Countering Violent Extremism, The U.S. Institute of Peace
