Zusammenfassung
  • The experience of the Peace and Reconciliation Agreement (APR) demonstrates that an agreement negotiated primarily among political and military elites, and supported by strong international mediation, cannot deliver sustainable outcomes without popular support, meaningful citizen participation, and strong national ownership by stakeholders. Beyond the quality of an agreement’s provisions, the success of a peace process depends on the sustained commitment of the parties involved, institutional continuity, and credible monitoring and implementation mechanisms. Future peace agreements in the Sahel must draw lessons from the shortcomings of the APR, including fragmented international mediation, excessive dependence on external funding, the exclusion of key stakeholders, and the disconnection between security issues and governance challenges. Peace processes should integrate security, development, justice, reconciliation, and citizen participation in order to address the root causes of conflict.
