Social Science - Conflict Studies

Designed to complement the Conflict Studies learning circle, the Conflict Studies programme examines the sources of armed conflict, the changing character of contemporary warfare and complex humanitarian emergencies. The program also conducts research into conflict prevention, conflict mitigation and conflict resolution, as well as the challenges associated with post-conflict reconciliation. The research agenda focuses particular attention on the role of non-state actors including terrorist syndicates and international non-governmental organisations (NGOs).

“Solidarity and Stewardship: Interfaith Approaches to Global Challenges”

In June 2007 The Scholar Ship Research Institute and Al-Akhawayn University organised a workshop to examine interfaith approaches to issues including migration, conflict resolution, environmental stewardship, human development and interfaith awareness.  Aimed at encouraging constructive dialogue across cultural and religious divides, the institute’s inaugural workshop drew distinguished academics and spiritual leaders from several diverse scholarly disciplines and faith traditions.
