Why do Peace and the demilitarization of Nuclear Weapons Matter now? as the world goes through the traumatizing experience of a global Pandemic of a unique kind- one that has permeated the walls of Nationalism and thwarted the social processes that modern civilization has so far been based-reminding us of the deep interconnectedness of our common destiny? In pursuing this question with reference to specific paper presentations, we invite a post Pandemic exploration of Peace, Global Security and the need for nuclear demilitarization in a renewed discourse bordering on Human Rights, Inter-Religious Dialogue, Peace Studies, Science and Technology, Indigenous Rights, Culture, Technology, Education, Leadership, Governance, Sustainable Development and Globalization. Objective Shifting consciousness through the redistribution of cultural reflections on the question of women and girl child in Africa. The Presentation entreats Multi-disciplinary perspectives targeted at capturing the problem Spaces on which conflict and non-sustainability thrives. Paper presentation and future conferences that would be based on them will be able to address explicitly the renewed and Post Covid19 need for peace, Conflict Mitigation and sustainability in a world where Nuclear weapon is demilitarized and implicitly, it will look at the philosophy of Anarchy appreciated less as the basis of international Relations. Motivating our collective effort is the linked convictions that the Post- Covid19 Pandemic necessitates a push and move inward, to re-evaluate the ontological notions that have led us into this present predicament and time-and that we have much to learn if we can bring up the discourse of Peace on the lens of sustainability in a world whose deep interconnectedness is bared by the Pandemic. Through this effort, We remind each other of the self-marginalization of our inherent human ability AND capacity for re-engagement, re-connection and community consciousness- such that brings us to the negotiating table of our deep interconnectedness and one that is easily overlooked by conventional discussions of Peace and conflict resolution- necessitating a renewed commitment to the notion of Peace and Sustainability in the world.
