Professor in Global Security and Mass Atrocity Prevention, University of Leeds. Currently fleeing Musk & writing a book on the Central African Republic. I make music and art in my spare time.
The U.S., reduces funding to the United Nations (UN). The UN scales down peacekeeping in countries such as the Central African Republic which undoubtedly increases the risk of mass violence

If governments were genuinely committed to mass atrocity prevention they would plug the gaps left by the U.S.

On World Book Day, the first ever book from the Central African Republic translated into English

Co-wives, Co-Widows reflects the struggle for justice that two women face when their husband dies.

It would make a nice gift & one hopes, would help authors in the Central African Republic.

This image. On one hand, the UK Parliament is calling for submissions on how a ceasefire in Gaza can be achieved. On the other hand, the US inc arms sales to Isreal by $680 million.

University of Leeds is offering scholarships for citizens of Gaza to study at undergraduate or postgraduate level. It is aimed at those who have been displaced as a result of the ongoing conflict in the region & are living in a different country (outside of the UK).

In a recent bibliography we put together containing 1000+ sources, there are just four on mass atrocity prevention in CAR.

I’m v pleased this article is now out and fingers crossed more interdisciplinary research is done on this grossly under researched country

A new term starts at the University of Leeds & looking forward to teaching Theories of IR.

Prior to that tho, we have five days of strikes as the ‘four fights’ over equality, pay, casualisation & workload continue.
