The Role of Conflict Analysis in EU Conflict Intervention : From Conflict Analysis to Integrated Responses
In the contemporary global landscape, a complicated geopolitical shift is underway, driven by a rising tide of conflicts – in the European Union’s neighbourhood and beyond – with deepening polarisation. This transformation is reshaping international dynamics, with both a political and institutional push for the EU to take more responsibility for its own security. The EU’s approach to peacebuilding has been embedded in a wider ambition to “preserve peace, prevent conflicts and strengthen international security”. Given the mushrooming of security tensions, this concept requires sustained reflection. Heretofore regarded as a credible and reliable partner, recent violence in Ukraine, Nagorno-Karabakh, Kosovo, and Israel/Palestine, has increased geopolitical tensions and challenged multilateralism, proving that the EU’s must continuously re-assess its commitment to partnership, and the manner of its approach to peacebuilding.

MaynoothWorks CONNECT 2024
Creating connections between researchers and industry can sometimes be hard. We have different way of communicating impact. To bridge this gap, MaynoothWorks, will host CONNECT 2024 during Maynooth University Research Week. The MaynoothWorks CONNECT 2024 will bring researchers and companies together to discuss grand challenges that we all face. MaynoothWorks polled our external stakeholders on the challenges that they see as priority. CONNECT 2024 gives researchers the opportunity to present their work in the context of these priority challenges. Framed by the Research Beacons introduced in the Maynooth University Strategic Plan this event will open potential opportunities to collaborate for societal and economic impact that meets regional needs.
