War, a phenomenon that had its own God in ancient Greece, has accompanied mankind since time immemorial. When we experience social progress, we redeem it with wars. If we experience technological progress, we also develop the technologies with which we wage war. People may stop killing in wars, but they are still the ones who die in them. The methods of warfare change, but the human suffering remains. What new perspectives should we open up so that we don’t lose the human dimension of the tragedy that each war represents? And how is the nature of war changing in a world of dramatic geopolitical change and the boom of new technologies? Can innovative strategies contribute to conflict management? Will environmental degradation and resource scarcity lead to increased conflict in the coming decades? We will present the crucial role of women in peace processes and their key contribution to achieving sustainable peace. And we will also embroider against war.
