How did Dayton bring an end to a devastating war, and what can it teach us about fostering sustainable peace today? Thirty years on, Dayton remains a powerful lens for understanding both the challenges and possibilities of post-conflict societies. While it brought an end to violence, Bosnia and Herzegovina continues to grapple with the pursuit of lasting stability. Looking beyond the Western Balkans, Dayton’s legacy raises broader questions: what lessons can inform responses to today’s conflicts, and which approaches from the past might help build durable peace? The panelists will explore these themes, drawing comparisons and insights for contemporary peacebuilding efforts worldwide. The event builds on our initiative “Young Generation for the New Western Balkans”, which connects youth from the region and the EU through workshops, seminars, and policy discussions to amplify their voices on reconciliation and integration.
