Training Conflict Analysis & Conflict Sensitivity Programming – Module I
This five-day residential course was organised by Helsinki España in participation with TI. The course trained participants in conflict analysis and conflict-sensitive programming tools. This approach required a deep understanding of the actors of the conflict, as well as the two-way interaction between an intervention and the context. The 2024 course dates are yet to be determined.
CCMR: – Reintegration of Ex-Combatants & Violent Extremists
While reintegration programming has a history of over three decades and many lessons are learned, the successful rehabilitation and reintegration of members of so-called extremist groups is one of the new and complex challenges of today’s peacebuilding efforts. This course at the Center for Civil-Military Relations (CCMR) at the Naval Postgraduate School examines the reintegration of ex-combatants during or at the end of violent conflict – one of the most difficult yet important elements for stabilization and a successful transition from war to peace. This course also explores the rehabilitation, de-radicalization and reintegration of both foreign fighters returning to their country of origin, and members of domestic violent extremist groups. This course will be held in June 2024 – dates to be confirmed.
