Mediation of Conflict, Peace and Security - Geneva Forum
**Mediation of Conflict, Peace and Security - Geneva Forum** is a professional and academic conference held on December 10, 2026, in Geneva, Switzerland. Participants engage with current approaches to conflict resolution and peacebuilding, examining mediation strategies, negotiation frameworks, and security considerations in international disputes. The event brings together practitioners and scholars to analyze case studies and discuss evidence-based methods for addressing contemporary conflicts.
Why it matters
For students or early-career delegates interested in international affairs, peacebuilding, or diplomacy, this forum sits at the intersection of some of the most important global policy questions: how conflicts are managed, how peace is supported, and how security concerns are addressed.
Because the event is in person and centered on mediation and peace and security, it can be a useful opportunity to engage more deeply with the language, frameworks, and practical challenges that shape conflict resolution discussions in international settings.
How to prepare
A strong way to prepare is to review core concepts in conflict mediation, peace processes, and international security before attending. It may also help to familiarize yourself with the roles different actors can play in mediation, including states, international organizations, and civil society.
Since no committees are listed, prepare broadly rather than narrowly. Focus on understanding major mediation approaches, common barriers to peace negotiations, and current debates around conflict prevention, ceasefires, and post-conflict stabilization so you can follow discussions confidently and ask informed questions.
