Expert Voices on Atrocity Prevention is a podcast by the Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect. The podcast, hosted by Global Centre Deputy Executive Director Jaclyn Streitfeld-Hall, features one-on-one conversations with practitioners from the field of human rights, conflict prevention, atrocity prevention and other related agendas. These conversations aim to provide a glimpse of the personal and professional side of how practitioners approach human rights protection and atrocity prevention.

In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Sarah Teitt, Director of the Asia Pacific Centre for the Responsibility to Protect and Senior Lecturer in Peace and Conflict Studies in the School of Political Science and International Studies at the University of Queensland. During the episode Sarah discusses the critical connections between peacebuilding and atrocity prevention. Drawing on examples from Myanmar (Burma) and Bangladesh, she explores how integrating an atrocity prevention lens into peacebuilding initiatives can broaden those efforts. The episode concludes with reflections on the importance of locally-led prevention efforts and continued creative action at a time when the multilateral system is under significant political and financial strain.
