The Sustainable Peace Lab empowers practitioners with evidence-based tools to address identity-based conflicts and societal divisions. The lab’s work centers on transforming conflict dynamics, improving relationships between groups, and fostering a peaceful and just society. By addressing key components of conflict dynamics as social boundaries, threat perception, social norms, collective memories, and intergroup emotions, the lab aims to develop innovative approaches to reconciliation and conflict resolution.
The lab brings together a diverse team of researchers, visiting fellows, and doctoral students who collaborate on various projects and initiatives, creating a platform for brainstorming and developing practical tools for peace-building practitioners. The lab’s commitment to impactful research and community engagement helps advance the field of conflict resolution and supports efforts to build more inclusive and harmonious societies.
