Die schnelle Weiterentwicklung digitaler Technologien verändert weltweit Konfliktdynamiken und gesellschaftliche Bedrohungsszenarien, sie konfrontiert aber auch Peacebuilder mit neuen Handlungsoptionen und –erfordernissen. Diese Prozesse stehen im Mittelpunkt des neuesten INEF-Reports.

Anlässlich der Veröffentlichung des neuen INEF-Reports „Digital Technologies, Peacebuilding and Civil Society“, führte das INEF zusammen mit der Plattform Zivile Konfliktbearbeitung am 20. Mai 2021 eine Webveranstaltung durch. Der Schwerpunkt lag auf der Frage, wie zivilgesellschaftliche Akteure digitale Werkzeuge in der Friedensförderung nutzen und aktiv deren Entwicklung gestalten. Welche Rückwirkungen haben diese Instrumente auf den Charakter von Konflikten und deren Dynamiken? Welchen Beitrag leistet Digitalisierung zum Empowerment von Gemeinschaften?

Die Autorin, Julia Hofstetter, präsentierte wichtige Ergebnisse ihrer Studie. Zusammen mit drei renommierten Kommentator*innen sprach sie sich für einen Paradigmenwechsel in der Friedensförderung aus.

From Ambition to Inaction: Climate Talks Struggle to Deliver Implementation

The intersessional climate negotiations (SB64) in Bonn concluded with sobering results. Climate justice was a central theme in many discussions and rounds of negotiations, but issues surrounding climate finance prevented an agreement from being reached. Negotiations on the global adaptation target, for example, must start again from scratch. The nexus of climate, peace and security was largely overlooked in the negotiations, as well as in the action agenda presented by the Turkish COP31 Presidency.
