"AI and Peacemaking: Rethinking Conflict Resolution in the Digital Age" Discussion Panel

As conflicts grow more complex, can AI become a game-changer in peacemaking?

This panel explores how AI-powered tools can assist in de-escalation, track early warning signs and enhance mediation efforts. From predictive analytics to digital diplomacy, the panellists will discuss AI’s role in shaping more effective, data-driven peace processes. What are the ethical, practical and strategic implications of integrating AI into conflict resolution, and how can we ensure it serves as a force for stability rather than division?

The Panellists are:

• Professor Corneliu Bjola (Queen Elizabeth House, University of Oxford) - chair
• Professor David Leslie (Alan Turing Institute)
• Mr Richard Makepeace CMG, formerly Consul General in Jerusalem (St Cross College, Oxford)
• Dr Roxana Radu (Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford)

There will be a drinks reception in the Sybil Dodd Room following the discussion panel to which everyone is welcome.
