The semester is just beginning at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, where I am teaching post-conflict reconstruction (aka stabilization and reconstruction, aka state-building, aka peacebuilding, etc.). My students get extra credit for quick writeups of relevant events around town.
The first, from Monica Sendor, is now posted. The event, hosted by the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced Studies’ (SAIS) African Studies Program, included presentations on Sudan’s recent referendum from Andrew Natsios (distinguished professor of international development at the Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University and former U.S. special envoy to Sudan) and Omar Ismail (adviser to the Enough Project).
Please visit Monica’s excellent writeup!
