Policy Brief: Transforming the Legacy of Somalia’s Conflict

On 20 July 2020, LAW released “Transforming the Legacy of Somalia’s Conflict to Ensure Long-Term Stabilisation” a policy brief providing an analysis on how past and ongoing efforts to re-build Somalia can be scaled up to effectively implement a ‘transitional justice approach,’ ultimately bringing about a deeper and lasting peace for Somalia. The brief contains four key recommendations highlighting opportunities to strengthen Somalia’s social fabric and to embed this change into ongoing and future state-building processes. In doing so, Somalia can break past and current cycles of violence and address deep-rooted inequalities.
