大会趣旨
One of the most serious problems in Africa is the disruption of the social order due to civil wars and regional conflicts. It is essential to the stability and growth of African societies to find effective means to ameliorate the varied problems these conflicts cause. This symposium aims to clarify the knowledge and institutions that African societies have themselves developed and utilized in resolving conflicts and maintaining co-existence. We discuss how this existing body of indigenous knowledge and institutions ―which we term “African Potentials”― might most effectively be employed in settling conflicts, bringing about reconciliation, and healing post-conflict societies in Africa today.
