    Libya in transition: options for the future

    Event - Public event - 26 January 2012 10:00 - 11:20 (GMT+00)

    Libya is at a critical juncture in transitioning from decades of dictatorship, with the National Transitional Council entering a complex post-conflict period that will need to tackle the legacies of violence, the remaking of state institutions and rebuilding the relationships between citizens and the state. The significant changes in the political landscape over the last six months still leave unanswered important questions about future priorities, opportunities, sequencing and where challenges and pitfalls are likely to lie. This event aims to discuss those questions, considering the options available for Libyan leaders and citizens, and the role that the international community can play to support the transition.
