This course has been developed at a time when “conflict
sensitivity” has become an important aspect of the work of
development and humanitarian programmes. The course examines
conflict sensitivity from a transformative perspective and
explores the dynamic relationship between development and
humanitarian interventions and conflict. It raises the key
issues that need to be taken into consideration in
developing a transformative approach and offers ways to
design programmes that foster peacebuilding even in the
midst of violence.
Course aims:
