#005 Innovation and Peacemaking: Meet Dr. Martin Wählisch
My guest Dr. Martin Wählisch explores how digital transformation from data analytics to immersive technologies can reshape diplomacy, conflict prevention, and global governance. He has over a decade of very deep experience at the United Nations, including work on peace processes in contexts such as Lebanon, Iraq, and Yemen, and leading also the really important innovation cell at the United Nations Department of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs in New York, where he brings both deep practical insight and forward-looking thinking to the field. And currently he is Associate Professor of Transformative Technologies, Innovation and Global Affairs at the University of Birmingham with appointments in both government and computer science. Martin describes his approach as computational global affairs, applying advanced technologies to complex international challenges, while at the same time remaining attentive to their ethical and normative implication.
What is Masterpeace ? A presentation.
Peace is not the absence of conflict.
It is the mastery of it. The world is full of conflict — and often deeply confused about how peace is actually made.
Peace is not simply the absence of conflict.
It is a craft. An art. A skill. And an attitude practiced by people who know how to work with conflict rather than deny it.
In Masterpeace, peace mediator Antje Herrberg explores this craft.
Some episodes are deep dives into the principles and realities of peace mediation and peacemaking. In others, Antje speaks with remarkable individuals “Masters of Peace” people who, in their own fields, have developed profound ways of navigating conflict and building understanding.
These conversations go beyond surface debates. They open a space for reflection, experience, and wisdom about what it really takes to work with conflict in the real world.
Each episode begins with a short introduction to the theme, unfolds in an open conversation with the guest, and closes with reflections and lessons learned.
Because even in a confused and conflict-ridden world, peace remains something that can be practiced and mastered.
