Glocal Peace and Conflict has two major aims. First, to continuously illuminate global dynamics in seemingly local conflicts and vice versa, which is symbolized in the term “glocal” and second, to continuously demonstrate the utility of sharing lessons learned about violence prevention across borders regardless of one’s background. Generating this deeper understanding between the speakers and among listeners can indeed encourage a paradigm shift from thinking about conflict as a process that solely includes visible conflict parties and types of violence, toward understanding violent conflict as a system that has a range of forces and actors within and beyond borders that intentionally or unintentionally accelerate myriad types of violence. With this bigger picture in mind, we can diversify the nature and number of interventions that weaken forces perpetuating such harms. The only question remaining then is how? Join us each episode to find some answers together!

Collaborative Social Change is delighted to announce the release of our very own Monica Macias’ biography, Black Girl from Pyongyang: In Search of My Identity. As the daughter of Equatorial Guinea’s first president, Macias faced extraordinary experiences including being raised by the first family in North Korea, which served as the launching pad for her international upbringing. Through her personal story, Macias' book explicates various biases, racist beliefs, and inequalities within and across the diverse contexts she lived to contribute to preventing and addressing widespread identity-based violence. In this episode of Glocal Peace and Conflict, Macias explains her intentions in sharing her story with the world and pivotal moments from her struggle to publish the English version of her book on her own terms.
