Since 2018, the CPM is running a Research and Transfer Project on Peace Mediation with and at the Federal Foreign Office. |
The Center explores and supports the practice of peace mediation with the aim to enable it to be more effective, reflective and responsible. One of the Center`s main characteristics is its transfer approach, which is based on close collaboration between science, practice and policy and stimulates joint reflection, mutual learning and support of each others`work in and on peace mediation. A special focus of its research activities is to seek for constructive ways to deal with the dilemmas of peace mediation. In its teaching, training and consultancy for diplomats, political decision-makers and civil society actors the Center interlinks methods, ethics and legal dimensions of peace mediation. |
