"We live in very uncertain times. But instead of being pessimistic, we should look for the opportunities and seek new alliances to tackle the same problems together."
Our @doctorchris.bsky.social challenges how we think about #peacebuilding today with CHS at #QMF2025 and Doha Forum by:
Our @doctorchris.bsky.social spoke at two key panels during #QMF2025 with Doha Forum.
She shared lessons from our insider mediation support in #Somalia, #Sudan and #Yemen - how essential locally led mediation is and the risks local actors shoulder when transforming conflicts.

Mama Kin on stage in front of her drums (Spender is out of frame)
The energetic, boisterous and joyous Pierce Brothers! Jack on the didgeridoo, Patrick on acoustic guitar, and I don't know the name of the keyboard guy!
Jack on the mandolin, Patrick on the acoustic guitar. The crowd was amazing!
One more of Jack on the didge with one hand while the other hand holds a harmonica to Patrick's mouth which he plays while playing his acoustic guitar. Fantastic gig!
Great end to the weekend of #QMF2025. Shame the weather it was completely shit and the drive was even worse! But we caught Mama Kim Spender in the big tent and finished off our festival with the fantastic Pierce Bros! So glad we went. Home now and ready for some serious downtime!

Always remember to look up. A beautiful collection of colourful paper lanterns and ribbons up on the roof of the Hippos tent
Three old mates jamming
But for me, the highlight of the night was these old blokes. The Cosmic Psycho, who absolutely rocked it in old Melbourne punk tradition in the Hippos tent! Many oldies getting right into it and a surprising number of youngsters loving it. Rock on! #QMF2025 #QMF
MASSIVE day at #QMF2025 but couldn’t post anything as the network went to total shit late morning and pretty much no one had any connection! Made coordinating a tad tricky 😖 Just got back to accom. Sleep now. Some pics tomorrow.
The Auslan interpreter is awesome! #QMF2025
Apologies in advance if I miss some alt text this weekend #QMF2025
