Recap Video | Buffett Symposium on Negotiating Peace in a Multipolar World

Although peace negotiations are often greeted with relief, they also represent a fork in the road. A badly-crafted agreement may be worse than no agreement at all. Rushed peace deals store up trouble for the future, fueling more intense and widening conflicts.

Our spring 2025 Buffett Symposium organized with Fundación Acordemos, Negotiating Peace in a Multipolar World, convened diplomats, negotiators, and academics to draw these lessons from high-profile peace processes of recent decades for future negotiations in a world confronting a crisis of multilateralism.
