  • [Publication] The Spread of Jihadism in the Sahel. Part 1

    Zeitschrift für Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik
    • Following the occupation of northern Mali by jihadist groups in 2012, the national and international military response failed to counter their influence. Having spread to neighbouring countries of Burkina Faso and Niger, jihadism is now on the doorstep of some countries in the Gulf of Guinea, such as Togo and Benin. This article analyses in three parts the main factors that have been exploited (instrumentalised) by these jihadists groups in the Sahel, a strategy that they could...

  • [Publication] Today’s solution, tomorrow’s problem? An analysis of West African practices in the use of pro-government militias.

    • In this Paper, I address the question of whether and under what circumstances the deployment of pro-government militias (PGMs) can reduce violence against civilians, specifically in the Sahel. My analysis— based on a literature review and case studies on Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Mali, Niger, and Nigeria—suggests that rather than representing a solution, PGMs tend to become part of the problem. In most cases, PGMs actively carry out acts of violence against civilians or passively cont...

  • [Publication] Popular Support:The Only Basis of Legitimacy for West Africa's New Military Regimes?

    Africa Today
    • The type of relationship that can be seen among the AES countries could be based on three aspects. First, the failure of ECOWAS to manage the Malian case after the first coup, on August 18, 2020, leading to a second coup, on May 24, 2021, could appear to have created conditions favorable to coups, first in Burkina Faso and then in Niger. Second, Mali has served as an example, a source of inspiration for the other two countries—particularly in terms of capturing popular support—that ...

    • Monday, 30 September 2024: The conference theme is Reconfigurations in Africa - and in African Studies, addressing current and past crises and processes of transformation on the African continent, as well as the need to critically reflect on the means — academic, artistic and otherwise – by which we approach them globally to expand knowledge production.

  • [Publication] Natural resources in Côte d’Ivoire: Fostering crisis or peace? The cocoa, diamond, gold and oil sectors

    • The trade and exploitation of natural resources such as cocoa, gold, petroleum and diamonds contributed to the conflict in Côte d’Ivoire and still obstruct the peace process in the country. This is one of the conclusions of BICC brief 40, entitled: “Natural Resources in Côte d’Ivoire: Fostering Crisis or Peace? The Cocoa, Diamond, Gold and Oil sectors”. The authors of the BICC brief, Lena Guesnet, Marie Müller and Jolien Schure analyze to what extent the extraction of natural resources has fuele...

  • [Press] New publication \ Pro-government armed militias in the Sahel: ”Conflict solvers” or “spoilers of peace”?

    • International military interventions in the Sahel have so far failed to help improve the conflict situation in the region. At the same time, militias supported by the regional governments are actively involved in the fight against Islamist movements. The Paper "Today’s solution, tomorrow’s problem? An analysis of West African practices in the use of pro-government militias" examines how the operation of these groups affects violence against civilians. This is the first of a row of SAD-Nexus Pape...
    • Monday, 16 May 2022: Fiona Wilshusen, the author of SAD-Nexus Paper (Security–Armament–Development) 1\2021, points to a dangerous dilemma created by pro-government militias (PGM): “In the short term, pro-government militias can help ensure local security under certain circumstances. However, if they develop their own agenda, as in Mali, which jeopardises human rights, security and development, they can turn into spoilers of peace in the long term.” The illegal transfer of weapons and equipment in particular fuels vi...

  • [Project] G7 Conference SALW in the Sahel

    • Never before has the Sahel–Maghreb region experienced such a high level of small arms availability. Following the fall of Gaddafi, non-state armed actors overran sizeable weapons depots in Misrata and Zintan, quickly turning Libya into an open market for arms. These small arms and light weapons (SALW) have since headed east (to Egypt, Sinai, and Palestine), west (to armed groups in northern Mali via Algeria and the Tunisian border), and south (to Boko Haram in Nigeria via Niger and Chad). To try...

    • Researcher
    • Already during my studies, my research interest was in the field of security, militarisation and development. In my Master's thesis, I focused on the relationship between society and armed actors and the gender implications of this relationship – and thus examined the media framing of (fighting) women in conflicts using the example of the depiction of Kurdish female fighters in British media. Internships with the German Armed Forces and the Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) in...

  • [Project] Security, armaments and development in countries receiving German arms exports

    • In 2007, a web-based interactive map component was added to the arms export database, which BICC has been using since 2006 to study how 170 countries comply with the requirements of the EU Code of Conduct for Arms Exports.
