Mozambique’s al-Shabab insurgency, and local and international responses

On November 9, the Brookings Institution’s Africa Security Initiative and Initiative on Nonstate Armed Actors explored the international and internal drivers of the conflict, the threat it poses regionally, and the policies adopted and available to address it. The panel conversation explored the role of external actors, such as the military forces of Rwanda and of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), which the Mozambican government invited to assist in responding to the insurgency.   Subscribe to Brookings Events on iTunes, send feedback email to [email protected], and follow us and tweet us at @policypodcasts on Twitter.
