	January 12, 2012 Book Launch: Customary Justice and Rule of Law in War-Torn Societies Customary Justice and Rule of Law in War-Torn Societies presents seven in-depth case studies that take a broad interdisciplinary approach to the study of the justice system. USIP brought together policymakers and practitioners to discuss the ways in which recent rule of law innovations plays a role in resolving many justice reform issues. Countries: Afghanistan, Guatemala, Iraq, Liberia, Mozambique, Sudan \| Issue Areas: Post-Conflict and Peacekeeping Activities, Rule of Law, Security Sector Reform/Governance
	July 13, 2010 Youth at War, Youth Building Peace, Youth on the Margins This event celebrated the publication of Youth in Post-Conflict Reconstruction: Agents of Change by Stephanie Schwartz published by the U.S. Institute of Peace. Using three cases of post-conflict reconstruction—Mozambique, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Kosovo—this study goes beyond the well documented cases focused exclusively on child soldiers to examine the roles of the broader youth population and their impact on the reconstruction process. The panelists drew on their own experiences working with youth in conflict zones to distill best practices in addressing youth needs in areas of conflict and pinpointed what issues must be resolved as we look to the future. Countries: Africa, Asia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Europe, Ireland, Israel, Kosovo, Mozambique, Palestinian Territories, Rwanda, Sierra Leone \| Issue Areas: Post-Conflict and Peacekeeping Activities, Youth and Peacebuilding
	April 28, 2009 The Impact of Conflict on Households: Pointers for Practitioners This public event looks at how different types of conflict affect economic behaviors at the household level. The presenters, Tilman Brueck and Kati Schindler, will discuss the impacts of conflict through the use of household survey data collected from both Mozambique and Rwanda, where post-conflict environments impaired household boundaries, asset endowments, and the types of income-generating activities households engaged in. They will also offer a set of policy recommendations for decision-makers and practitioners. Countries: Mozambique, Rwanda
	December 11, 2006 Getting it Right: Amnesty or Accountability After Atrocity? Countries: Mozambique, Rwanda, South Africa \| Issue Areas: Post-Conflict and Peacekeeping Activities, Rule of Law \| Programs: Grants & Fellowships, Jennings Randolph Senior Fellowship Program
