Peace is a goal that all societies strive for. However, its meaning varies in different contexts, depending on societal values and settings.
To dissect the various dimensions of peace, our host Mr. Axel M. Addy, former Minister of Commerce and Industry and Chief Negotiator for WTO accession of Liberia, interviewed Mr. Steve Killelea, Founder and Executive Chairman of the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) and Ms. Sabina Alkire, Director of the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI).
Drawing from their respective works on the Global Peace Index and the Multidimensional Poverty Index, Steve and Sabina explain that peace is more than just the absence of conflict. It is also about the availability of structures, institutions and attitudes that can foster resilience. This understanding of peace provides avenues for addressing the various dimensions of fragility, including through poverty reduction strategies.
