Analysing and Understanding Conflicts
Recognising and making use of peace potentials: standard tools in conflict analysis, their scope, limits and cultural aspects
Mo. 24. Oktober 2011 bis Fr. 28. Oktober 2011
Generally speaking there is much more behind a particular conflict than just one particular event that set it off. So it is crucial that projects to promote peace conduct systematic conflict analyses. Only then can they identify the starting points for peace work and estimate what impacts a third-party intervention could have.
Using practical examples, participants will become familiar with current theories and models relating to violence and conflict and apply these together with conflict analysis methods. They then learn to see them within the relevant peace-related policies and cultural context.
