Biography: Andrews Patrick Dzreke I have witnessed eminent personalities who acted and intervened between two communities in conflict for growth and development. I have equally witnessed electoral violence, illegal mining disputes, political instability, and dispute over land, eminent of immigrants and many more. Having been witnessing the above, I took it upon myself to acknowledge and learn best practices in stakeholder engagement, making analysis and conflict resolution strategies that have emboldened my skills and experience. I am a law enforcement officer, committed, result-oriented and have a good background in security management, conflict resolution, policy analysis, humanitarian crises management, research, intelligence gathering and investigations. I have served three local peacekeeping missions in Northern Ghana in various capacities and brought communities closer and in harmony. Having the intent to become a world class professional on issues related to conflict resolution and peaceful coexistence, I took it upon myself to learn best practices from the United Nations Security Management System (UNSMS) to understand the concept of security management. It has enabled me to have an empirical lens to analyze issues of conflict in some part of the world.
