The Ukrainian Association of South Africa announced an offline seminar on the topic “South African Insights on Ukraine’s Path to Peace: Regional Security, Nuclear Safety, and Human Rights Perspectives,” as reported by the Ukrainian Association of South Africa.
The event is planned on March 11, 2024, from 2 to 4 pm. Venue: Room 648 Department of Political Science (6th Floor, Arts Building cnr. Merriman Ave. and Ryneveld St.) Stellenbosch University.
“The polarisation of the Russia-Ukraine war has rendered it challenging for experts to engage in substantive dialogue beyond political rhetoric. The African peace mission to Ukraine and Russia in June 2023 became the first mission from African states to address a conflict outside the African continent and demonstrate the importance of peaceful resolution in this distant war for the continent,” the organizers wrote.
This event brings together South African and Ukrainian experts who have collaborated on three distinct issues underpinning the Ukraine Peace Formula: regional security, nuclear safety, and the forcible deportation of children. The event centres on extracting lessons from the conflict and exploring avenues for enhancing peace on the continent and beyond, the Ukrainian Association of South Africa emphasized.
