Course overview

This six-week course provides participants with theoretical and practical skills, and contextualised knowledge of the EMR relating to transversal issues that interact with conflict and peaceful transition. Participants will benefit from a deep and comprehensive vision of the region which will enhance their capacity to offer contextualised and integrative solutions to problematic situations they encounter in their professional activities.

Upon completing the course, participants will:

  • be able to identify key approaches to understanding conflict transitions in the EMR, and understand who are the key actors and cultural, legal and political approaches to peace in the region
  • appraise the importance of socio-cultural and historical contexts in understanding various forms of conflict and peace and contemporary cases
  • understand the local, regional and international dynamics that fuel conflicts and how conflict management has adapted to new conflict dynamics
