Abstract

Demands upon peacebuilding related to the following topics are explored: where faith-based organizations have played a prominent role in such countries as the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Liberia; considering the right of return of refugees in the Liberian context; endemic intra-state conflicts in Africa and some conditions which inch towards resolutions; the global war on women in the case of conflict, and in post-conflict societies such as South Africa, which leads the world in rape, child rape, and violence; the technology of mobile phones and the internet which has changed political landscapes.
