Clingendael Institute:KNOWLEDGE PLATFORM SECURITY & RULE OF LAW-ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2019





INTRODUCTION
The Annual Conference 2019 is organized by the Secretariat of the Knowledge Platform Security & Rule of Law. Fransje Molenaar and Jos Meester from the Clingendael Institute’s Conflict Research Unit will speak at the conference. For the programme, timetable and registration, see also their website. 

Bridging the Gap: Rhetoric and practice in security and the rule of law

The Annual Conference is a one-day event that brings our vibrant community of practitioners, researchers, and policymakers together for a thought-provoking discussion. As in previous years, the Annual Conference brings together representatives from national and international governments and policy organs, think-thanks, journalists, INGO practitioners, activists, diplomats, and field researchers from around the globe. These diverse actors assemble with a singular aim: to present their latest projects and freshest ideas, and engage their peers to learn and improve security and justice policy and programs.
This year, the Secretariat has chosen to investigate a number of gaps – as well as how we can work together to bridge them - under the theme ‘Bridging the Gap: Rhetoric and practice in security and the rule of law’. We hope this theme will challenge participants to interrogate the way the security and rule of law field is organized and framed, to contribute to the generation of new ideas, reward taking risks and successful innovation, and to forge promising and equal relationships to enable progress towards sustaining peace and strengthening the rule of law.

Speakers from the Clingendael Institute’s, Conflict Research Unit

Fransje Molenaar (Senior Research Fellow Clingendael)
10:45 - 12:15: Working principles for developing Rule of Law contexts
Fransje Molenaar will be speaking together with Anne Marie Brinkman (Bureau Ensemble). This session is an open invitation to join us in looking for informed divergence of existing routes in policy-making & implementation through a combination of five perspectives: breaking complexity down – stacking communication – gathering creativity – seeking consensus – commitment to action. Based on insights from research in Libya, Mali and Niger on the role of traditional authorities in stabilizing the complex context in the Sahel, we do not call for a ‘system innovation’, but rather for incremental adjustment fueled by the reflections and follow-up actions of the involved professionals. What does it mean to be a policy-maker or implementer and what does this mean for individual actions?
Jos Meester (Research Fellow Clingendael) 
10:45 - 11:45: Economic development & stable inclusive governance: Somalia & beyond
Jos Meester (Research Fellow Clingendael) will speak together with Fia van der Klugt (MFA). How can we focus on economic development in fragile and conflict affected situations in a way that contributes to more stable inclusive societies? In other words: how can we link SDG8 with SDG16? We'll take Somalia as example and will share good and bad practices for mutual learning.
Check out the full programme.

EGMONT Institute: Use Connectivity to Strengthen Multilateral Cooperation in the EU’s Neighbourhood

  Use Connectivity to Strengthen Multilateral Cooperation in the EU’s Neighbourhood By  Sven Biscop   (15 September 2020)   In   Commentaries Asia-Pacific ,   EU and strategic partners ,   EU strategy and foreign policy ,   European defence / NATO To strengthen multilateralism in their own neighbourhood, Germany and the EU should pursue connectivity strategies with their Eastern and Southern neighbours. These could create the links between the EU’s neighbours that  previous partnership agreements have failed to establish. They should include political and security dimensions for states to feel connected to  the EU in a political sense.
