The course focuses on the development of practical and conceptual tools for the transformation of conflict from the macro- to the micro-level. Taking the perspective that all students will be involved in both conflict and resolution of different sorts and in different capacities throughout their future professional lives, the aim of this course is to engage with these processes through various simulations, project development activities, and other activities. These situational learning exercises provide an opportunity for the practical development of ‘skills,’ but more importantly, of conceptual tools relating to negotiation, mediation, conflict analysis, program development, and peace building. By creating situations and a classroom environment where students can put these concepts into use, the goal is to move from ideas to practices and back , that is, to close the dialectical loop between theory, research, and practice that is the necessary basis for reflective conflict transformation.
