Is America Undermining Its Own System? | Raisina Dialogue 2025

Waging Peace: Looking Back to Look Ahead Scene Setter: Dag Nylander, Director, Norwegian Centre for Conflict Resolution, Norway Despite calls across the world against re-entering an ‘era of war’, long-standing grievances continue to threaten collective peace. Indeed, recent years have seen war and chaos overshadow peace efforts. However, 2025 presents a potential inflection point—an opportunity to steer a course towards peace. This panel will examine the old and new frameworks that nations and multilateral institutions must adopt to invest in peace, exploring the roles of stakeholders, the importance of investment and finance, and the need for platforms that enable dialogue for progress. What are the lessons from successful and failed peace efforts in recent decades? What are the peculiar attributes and underlying drivers of success? What type of actors are necessary to conclude a successful peace process? What is the role of a mediator? Who is a ‘neutral’ mediator? What terms are essential for a successful and sustainable peace agreement? What types of investment and financing mechanisms are crucial for a sustainable peace process?
