Conciliation Resources (CR)

Working together for peace

Conciliation Resources is an independent international organisation working with people in conflict to prevent violence, resolve conflicts and promote peaceful societies.

We believe that building sustainable peace takes time. We provide practical support to help people affected by violent conflict achieve lasting peace. We draw on our shared experiences to improve peacebuilding policies and practice worldwide.

Vision

Our vision is of a world where people work together to resolve conflicts and promote peaceful and inclusive societies.

Mission

Our mission is to provide practical support to help people affected by violent conflict achieve lasting peace. We draw on our shared experiences to improve peacebuilding policies and practice worldwide.

Values

  • Collaboration

We believe that everybody affected by conflict has a stake in peace. We work to create peaceful and inclusive change within societies in partnership with local people, to respond to violence, inequality, injustice and exclusion.

  • Creativity

We believe that peacebuilding needs to be flexible and adaptive to the specific and evolving realities of each conflict context. We support innovative ways to influence change, and we share insights from people’s lived experience globally to build collective knowledge and expertise.

  • Challenge

We believe that peace can only come about if people have a chance to better understand their conflict and if difficult conversations are held between allies and adversaries. We stand alongside those who, with courage and integrity, reach out across conflict divides.

  • Commitment

We believe that building sustainable peace takes time. That’s why we make long-term commitments to support just and resilient transitions from protracted conflict to lasting peace.

Thème(s)

Our work covers many topics relating to peacebuilding, however there are a number of cross-cutting issues that run through our programme and policy work.

  • Rethinking gender and peacebuilding

  • Engaging armed groups

  • Enhancing mediation support

  • Expanding space for dialogue

Région d’intérêt

Our programme and policy work focuses on eight regions globally :

  • Horn of Africa (in the Ogaden region in Ethiopia)

  • Esat and Central Africa (in the Central African Republic, the Republic of South Sudan and in border areas affected by the Lord’s Resistance Army)

  • Caucasus (on the Georgian-Abkhaz and Nagorny Karabakh conflicts)

  • Southeast Asia (in The Philippines)

  • South Asia (in and around the disputed regions of Jammu and Kashmir)

  • Pacific (in Fiji and Papua New Guinea)

  • Latin America (in Colombia)

Objectif(s)

To support our overarching mission, we have set ourselves three 2020 goals to work towards:

  • 1. Causes and drivers of conflict are peacefully transformed

As a result of our support, relationships, governance practices and structures, and legacies of violence, which are obstacles to sustainable peace, are addressed.

  • 2. Approaches to building peace support inclusion

As a result of our engagement, expertise and resources, peacebuilding and conflict prevention practice is more inclusive.

  • 3. Policy is prioritising conflict prevention and peacebuilding

As a result of our efforts, relevant policymakers at international, national and regional levels make investments in long-term, non-violent approaches to preventing armed conflict and building peace, and in those working for peace in conflict contexts.
