Date & Time: 2026 (Specific date not provided in source) | 4:00 PM Addis Ababa | 2:00 PM Brussels

Event Overview:
In a context of ongoing global and regional instability, Africa faces meaningful peace and security challenges. Multiple conflicts across the continent, particularly in eastern, western, and central Africa, resulted in significant loss of life in 2025. At a time when strong leadership is needed, the African Union (AU) is facing internal challenges that limit its capacity to effectively address these crises.
This online event, hosted by the International Crisis Group, will outline seven key peace and security priorities for the African continent in 2026, with a specific focus on Somalia, Sudan, and South Sudan. The discussion will analyze current conflicts and potential pathways toward resolution.
Panelists:
* Liesl Louw-Vaudran: Crisis Group Senior Adviser, African Union
* Omar Mahmood: Crisis Group Senior Analyst, somalia and the Horn of Africa
* Shewit Woldemichael: Crisis Group Senior Analyst, Sudan
* Daniel Week: Crisis Group Senior Analyst, South Sudan
Moderator:
* Pauline Bax: Crisis Group Deputy Program Director, Africa
Livestream:
The panel discussion will be live-streamed on the Crisis Group’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/crisisgroup
