Peace by Design: Using Predictive Tech to Prevent Conflict in Africa By Edison Uviase What if Africa could predict conflict before it happens - and stop it? In Peace by Design, Edison Uviase presents a bold vision for transforming how Africa approaches peacebuilding - by harnessing the power of artificial intelligence, geospatial mapping, citizen reporting, and predictive governance. From election-related violence to climate-induced migration, the continent faces complex challenges that demand more than traditional responses. This book offers a new blueprint: one where technology, ethics, and community insight converge to make peace proactive, not reactive. Through real-world examples, emerging innovations, and practical strategies, Uviase explores: AI-driven early warning systems and sentiment analysis tools Geospatial conflict mapping using satellite data and GIS Mobile platforms for community-based peacebuilding How governments can shift from crisis management to predictive governance The role of universities, youth, and innovation labs in building a peace-tech ecosystem across Africa Urgent, visionary, and grounded in African realities, Peace by Design challenges leaders, developers, policymakers, and everyday citizens to see peace not as wishful thinking, but as a system we can design, scale, and sustain. If you care about Africa's future - and believe peace is not accidental but engineered - this book is your guide.
