Conflict Dynamics International

(FDFA) in collaboration with ICRC and OCHA to develop a practical Field Manual on Humanitarian Access
- Children and Armed Conflict Accountability: An initiative aiming to increase effective accountability at the national and international levels for violations against children in the context of armed conflict
- Humanitarian Negotiations: An initiative to develop policy guidance, design and deliver training, and provide technical support to prepare humanitarians to conduct humanitarian negotiations

CDI's Peacebuilding in Transition States program encapsulates a range of activities intended to support peacebuilding as a means of conflict prevention and resolution following violent conflict. The objectives of the PTS program are to:

- develop innovative, outcome-oriented approaches and strategies for peacebuilding in key sectors, including: building political structures and institutions; constitutional drafting processes; institutional reform; re-integration of combatants; etc.
- undertake policy-directed research to provide timely inputs and recommendations to key stakeholders on specific peacebuilding issues (e.g. options for structuring transition of political institutions in Iraq);
- convene stakeholders, and initiate and facilitate dialogue and cross-case learning among key national and international actors, including emerging national authorities and inter-governmental organizations. Conflict Dynamics is currently engaged in peacebuilding projects in the Republic of Sudan; Republic of South Sudan; and Somalia.
