In a world often marked by conflict and division, new forms of diplomacy are emerging — led not by politicians alone, but by individuals who bridge business, culture, and humanitarian purpose. Among them is Agam Pandit, a respected international strategist and entrepreneur, recognized for his partnership with Africa’s authentic royal dynasties in advancing peace and development.
Pandit is a valued member and partner within the Council of Elders of the Empires and Kingdoms of Africa (COSERA), a network working alongside legitimate monarchs to promote investment, cross-border cooperation, and economic opportunity across the continent. His collaboration with Her Imperial Highness Princess YAV Mwad Marilyn — of the Mwant-a-YHWH dynasty of the RUUND | LUNDA Empire — has brought him into direct engagement on one of the most sensitive and complex challenges in Central Africa: fostering understanding between the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Rwanda.
Rather than seeking headlines, Pandit’s approach focuses on behind-the-scenes relationship-building, facilitating dialogue and trust among leaders and stakeholders. Through his role in COSERA, he has contributed to initiatives that seek to ensure the voices of Africa’s authentic imperial and royal institutions are included in the region’s peace and development processes — particularly following the Washington Peace and Development Agreement of June 27, 2025.
His involvement reflects a shared belief, echoed by COSERA’s leadership, that conflict resolution must be rooted in dignity, sovereignty, and tangible benefits for local communities. This includes ensuring that the economic dimensions of peace agreements bring real gains to the Congolese people, rather than perpetuating historic inequities tied to the exploitation of natural resources.
While the journey toward lasting peace in the Great Lakes region is complex, Pandit’s work with COSERA demonstrates how strategic partnerships between global entrepreneurs and traditional leadership can open new pathways for cooperation. By grounding diplomacy in respect for history, sovereignty, and shared prosperity, he exemplifies a modern form of engagement — one that builds bridges not just between nations, but between past and future.
