Results showed that respondents heavily rely on university website to search for tertiary institution information even though they are very active on WhatsApp, spending over 2 hours daily. The findings of this research adds on to existing research on consumer decision making with respect to their choice of tertiary institutions. It also helps authorities of various tertiary institutions, to improve on their social media platform activities and also develop communication strategies in other to attract potential students through the various social media platforms.

"In the interests of justice?" The International Criminal Court, peace talks and the failed quest for war crimes accountability in northern Uganda
This article analyzes the first peace talks to take place against the backdrop of an International Criminal Court (ICC) investigation: the Juba Talks between the Lordâs Resistance Army and the Government of Uganda (2006â2008). Drawing on field research and original source material, it departs from well-worn peace versus justice debates and provides new empirical material to explore how the presence of the court shaped domestic political dynamics at Juba. It argues that at the level of broad rhetoric, the presence of the court created significant discord between negotiating parties. On a practical level, however, it created space for consensus, but not the type envisaged by international justice promoters. The court came to be seen by both sides as an intervention that needed to be contained and controlled. This resulted in the politically expedient Agreement on Accountability and Reconciliation, which showcased a transitional justice âtool-kit,â but was based on a shared desire to evade the jurisdiction of international criminal justice. Given its practical complexity, the transitional justice agreement was ultimately rejected by Joseph Kony, who became increasingly distrustful of his own negotiating team at Juba. In findings relevant to other contexts, the article presents in-depth analyses of how domestic political dynamics around the ICC intervention produced a national transitional justice framework designed to protect both parties from war crimes accountability

ABSTRACT
This research investigates the implementation of the regulation of the Minister of Cooperatives and Small and Medium Enterprises (henceforth referred to as ministerial regulation) Number 6 of 2020 concerning Government Aid for micro-businesses in the Regency of Garut in 2020 by Cooperative Agency and small and medium enterprises in the Regency of Garut to micro businesses in the regency according to the Ministerial Regulation Number 6 of 2020 concerning Government Aid for micro-businesses by observing the performance of the cooperative and small and medium enterprises in the Regency of Garut, and to find out how this government aid is provided for the micro businesses in the regency. Departing from this issue, this research investigates 1) how is Ministerial Regulation Number 6 of 2020 concerning Government Aid for micro-businesses in the Regency of Garut implemented? 2) what are the juridical and non-juridical methods in the implementation of the Ministerial Regulation Number 6 of 2020? 3) what are the measures and solutions to cope with the juridical and non-juridical implementation of the Ministerial Regulation Number 6 of 2020 concerning Government Aid for micro-businesses in the Regency of Garut?
This research employed socio-legal methods and socio-juridical approaches. Primary and secondary data were analyzed based on descriptive-qualitative methods to allow for easier understanding and conclusion of the research.
The research results reveal that the cooperative agency and small and medium enterprises in the Regency of Garut have some strategies to bring about the effectiveness of law article 7 of the Ministerial Regulation Number 6 of 2020 concerning Government Aid to micro businesses by involving other agencies in the Regency of Garut, including social agency and population and civil registration agency to help the cooperative agency and small and medium enterprises in collecting data of the people. What interrupts the effectiveness of this regulation is the requirement that the micro businesses have to fulfill before they receive government aid. In this case, no requirement has been set regarding the guidelines that require the persons concerned to attach a business written statement or Business Registration Number, while these should be present as legal proof that micro businesses must provide. Moreover, this legality allows the businesses to get Productive Aid from the President for Micro Businesses (BPUM). In addition, the formation of a work team responsible for the registration of the applicants of BPUM only exists/is only governed at a provincial level.

Architectures for peace
This contribution was delivered on 6 May 2022 on the occasion of the hybrid 2022 edition of EUI State of the Union on âA Europe fit for the next generation?'The European Union has developed extensive policies and resources to support international criminal justice, human rights, and transitional justice across the globe. This panel examines the international peace architecture and appraises the arguments for a stronger legal infrastructure that would encourage, and support, governments to choose a negotiated settlement of these conflicts. What are the incentives for governments to pursue negotiations for ending conflicts? Should the EU support the Peace Treaty Initiative, which aims to promote negotiated solutions to intra-state armed conflicts
The EU as a human rights-promoting peace mediator?
This contribution was delivered online on 6 May 2021 on the occasion of the hybrid 2021 edition of EUI State of the Union on âEurope in a Changing World'.The EU has become known as a bastion of peace. It has also increasingly presented itself as a promoter of peace outside its borders. What is the state of the union in the field of peace mediation? With 27 member states, it is a potentially powerful broker, but often needs to act in concert with others. It may also suffer from a fragmented voice. How is the EU positioning itself in the increasingly crowded area of peace mediation? What are its comparative advantages; what are its burdens? While the Unionâs overt human rights commitment provides an ideal blueprint for a liberal peace, does it sometimes appear far removed from the issues that the warring parties are most concerned about? What successes and challenges has the EU experienced when seeking to promote both peace and human rights in conflict resolution contexts

Transitional Justice and Violent Extremism
This publication is part of a project that aims to fill a major gap in policy making: the failure to integrate lessons learnt and best practices from the field of transitional justice in relation to conflict resolution strategies with two kinds of unconventional armed actors: 1) âviolent extremistâ groups, such as jihadists; and 2) organised crime groups, such as mafia, gang networks and drug cartels. IFITâs work on the former began in 2017 with the UN University Centre for Policy Research (UNU-CPR). The project was concerned with the fact that, to date, what has reigned is an overwhelmingly punitive and dragnet approach which, rather than helping address root causes and break cycles of resentment and violence, instead risks renewing or reinforcing them. This resulted in three jointly-published case studies (ISIS in Iraq, Al-Shabaab in Somalia, and Boko Haram in Nigeria) and an initial policy framework. Building on this initial work, IFIT launched a second phase of research in 2019 on the same broad topic, drawing on lessons from a wider range of country situations where comparable challenges have been grappled with, in order to provide expanded guidance for policymakers. This involved fieldwork-based reports covering Libya (focused on the LIFG), Uganda (focused on the LRA), and Afghanistan (focused on the Taliban), all of which examine the intersection of negotiation and transitional justice goals. IFIT commissioned additional taxonomy research to plot identifiable similarities and differences of motivation, structure, and context along a wide spectrum of different archetypes of non-state or unconventional armed groups. All of this informed a final framework that aims to help policymakers tailor more effective negotiation and transitional justice strategies to address root causes, break cycles of violence, and strengthen the rule of law in settings affected by violent extremism
