Objetivos del evento

This module aims at providing students with some analytical tools to comprehend better the contexts of conflict and to make adequate assessments of the challenges faced by practitioners. Based on people-centered approach, conflict-sensitive tools such as ‘do no harm’ or ‘better programming initiatives’ are explored to ensure that programming does not fuel conflicts and when possible enhances conflict transformation.

Metodología

The module runs over 11 weeks from end mid-January to end of March. It is divided between 2 weeks of readings, 6 weeks of staff-led activities covering the 6 themes above and 3 weeks of preparation of assignments.  During the 6 staff-led weeks, you will participate to stimulating webinars, group discussions, simulation, quizzes and group exercises. External experts will be invited to participate to the webinars. You will be proposed to reflect on your practice and to test your new learning in the field to ‘learn as much as possible by doing’. You will have also opportunities to share with other practitioners working in similar fields in order to learn from peer experiences.

 

The lecturing team is composed of highly experienced academic and practitioners based all over the world. Facilitators and teaching assistants will be mentoring you during your learning experience.

Finally, the module addresses practitioners working in other professional sectors, interested in exploring opportunities in the fields of humanitarian action and peacebuilding.
