EUCAP Sahel Niger
Dr. Antje Herrberg is currently the Chief of Staff of EUCAP Sahel Niger, a security capacity building mission based in Niamey following a secondment at the EU Delegation to the Democratic Republic of Congo as a Special Advisor on peace and stabilisation. Prior to this, she had been a Senior Mediation Advisor at the EU European External Action Service working both on the policy and on the operational side of peace process support including early warning and conflict prevention. With more than 24 years of leadership experience, she was also in the UN Standby Team for mediation, and served as Chief advisor to Nobel Peace Price Laureate Martti Ahtisaari. She was Director for several International NGOs such as mediateur, the Crisis Management Initative, Interpeace, and EastWest Institute. Dr. Herrberg's academic training and her role as a visiting professor at the College of Europe have allowed her to advance interdisciplinary approaches to conflict resolution also – playing pioneering roles in climate peace and security, the neuro and psychological dimension in peace mediation and the creation of community of peace practices in the EU, the Black Sea Region, and in Ukraine – whilst always being a persistent advocate for inclusivity. She has wide experience in dealing with non-state violent actors and terrorists in a number of country settings from Eastern Europe to Indonesia and Africa. She has trained and coached more than a thousand diplomats in various fields of peace process support.
