Tool: Mediation-Oriented Conflict Analysis (MoCA)


​The Center currently develops a framework for analyzing conflicts that is oriented towards mediation in three respects: 
  • It uses the methods, principles and techniques of mediation to analyze a conflict 
  • It assesses the feasibility and potential of mediation as a method of intervention in a conflict 
  • It identifies concrete entry-points for third party interventions what ever approach is used

The added value of this kind of conflict analysis is to provide the essential information needed
  • to identify whether mediation does or does not fit to a conflict situation and might do more harm than good and
  • to design a mediative approach corresponding to the characteristics of the conflict, its dynamic contingencies and the systemic context.

The mediation-oriented conflict analysis can be used for analyzing past peace processes, design and prepare a future process or support an ongoing one.   ​
