Arab Center Washington DC (ACW) and the MENA Programme at the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) are convening a panel of experts to examine these neglected conflicts, their key drivers, and pathways toward potential resolutions. Panelists will discuss the current status of the conflicts and warring parties in Libya, Sudan, and Yemen, the challenges to pursuing and reaching a political solution, and recommendations for ending the stalemates and moving to post-conflict stages. How have shifting geopolitical alliances impacted regional and international engagements in each of Libya, Sudan, and Yemen? What role do foreign actors play in fueling or mitigating these wars? What are the pathways and prerequisites for a constructive and inclusive political process? How can transitional governance be structured to prevent renewed conflict? What mechanisms could ensure accountability for war crimes and justice for victims? How can economic policies, including resource management (e.g., Libya’s oil, Sudan’s gold, and Yemen’s ports), support post-war recovery? What future scenarios could unfold if these conflicts remain unresolved? And what steps can regional and global actors take to shift toward lasting peace? Acknowledging that such processes are complex, non-linear, and context specific, and considering the changing nature of regional and global powers’ interventions in these conflicts and the different political reality that is emerging in the region today, ACW and SIPRI invite you to join this forward-looking discussion of the different future scenarios that could transform the region in alignment with the aspirations of its people.
