By the University of Birmingham, the Royal United Services Institute, the University of Geneva Our podcast and associated activities reflect on the role of cultural reforms in peace agreements and open a broad conversation on how cultural institutions can be reformed to nurture sustainable peace after civil wars. In the podcast, we present our recent work, which explores how all intra-state peace accords concluded worldwide in 1989-2017 reformed cultural institutions. We found that cultural reforms which accommodate cultural diversity in intra-state peace accords makes them more successful and resilient. We explain why this may be the case through examples from conflict-affected societies such as Northern Ireland.
