Twenty-three years ago, the Bougainville Peace Agreement ended the deadliest conflict in the South Pacific since World War II after a decade of fighting. The hard-won peace in what is now the Autonomous Region of Bougainville — made up of Papua New Guinea’s easternmost islands — has been regarded as a rare success story among contemporary peace processes. However, Bougainville’s political future remains unresolved. On October 18, USIP hosted a conversation about the implementation of the Bougainville Peace Agreement and what the peace process’s uncertain future might mean for peace and security in Bougainville, Papua New Guinea and the broader region.
