The SPSP January 2026 Newsletter presents a comprehensive account of the Society for Peace Studies and Practice’s institutional milestones, partnerships, and outstanding contributors between 2022 and 2025. A major highlight of this edition is the formal unveiling of The Gold List Initiative, a prestigious recognition framework established to honour individuals and institutions whose commitment, leadership, and support have significantly advanced SPSP’s peacebuilding mission across Africa.
The newsletter documents key achievements, including strategic partnerships with national and international institutions, the expansion of SPSP into new countries, progress in training, research, and policy engagement, and the strengthening of governance structures such as the Board of Trustees and Board of Fellows. It also acknowledges the invaluable contributions of peace practitioners, scholars, security institutions, and development partners whose efforts have shaped SPSP’s growth and impact.
This edition serves both as a record of gratitude and a historical reference, reinforcing SPSP’s vision of sustaining a culture of excellence, collaboration, and recognition in peacebuilding practice.
