7:00 to 7:15 | Welcoming Remarks, Dr. Paul R. Williams, Executive Director and Co-Founder |
7:15 to 8:00 | Open Reception |
The first half of 2011 has witnessed a dramatic shift in international affairs with the Arab Spring leading to democratic reform across the region from Tunisia to Libya and beyond, the independence of Southern Sudan, and the increased engagement of the International Criminal Court.
Dr. Paul R. Williams, a Nobel Peace Prize nominee and Executive Director and Co-Founder of PILPG, will comment on these sea changes in international politics, the shifting legal landscape, and PILPG’s vision for facilitating democratic governance and stability through the provision of legal and technical assistance. Dr. Williams will draw on his experience in the last year advising the Government of Southern Sudan on legal issues related to secession from Sudan, the Libyan Transitional National Council on devising long-term strategies for peace, the Darfur delegation on negotiating the Doha peace talks, and the members of Nepal's Constituent Assembly on drafting Nepal's post-conflict constitution.
