Got Conflict? Let's Talk Peacebuilding!
Got Conflict? Let’s Talk Peacebuilding is a podcast by the Alliance for Peacebuilding (AfP), a network of more than 225 organizations working globally in 181 countries to reduce and prevent violent conflict and build sustainable peace.
Got conflict? Of course we do! Because conflict is inevitable, but violent conflict is not. In this podcast, we discuss what is driving record-breaking global violent conflict, and more importantly, what we can do to prevent and reduce violent conflict and build sustainable peace—in our neighborhoods just down the street and in faraway places.

Why WPS? The Women, Peace, and Security Agenda Can Change the World
In this second episode of the Alliance for Peacebuilding’s (AfP) new podcast, Peace: We Build It!, AfP’s Director of Policy and Advocacy, Megan Corrado, and Dr. Shirley Graham, Director of the Gender Equality Initiative in International Affairs and Associate Professor with George Washington University’s Elliott School of International Affairs, sits down with our host Tanya Domi to discuss the progress of and challenges facing the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) Agenda 20 years after passage of the landmark United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 and how women’s meaningful inclusion in peacebuilding is vital to international security and development.
The episode also explores how implementation of the WPS Act can help the U.S. emerge as a “gender superpower”—exercised through a feminist foreign policy and commitment to the empowerment of women, gender minorities, and other marginalized populations.
