AUR’s multidisciplinary Peace Studies and Conflict Resolution program explores how we approach, mediate, and resolve conflict both globally and in individual cultures. Our graduates analyze the background context and causes of conflict and develop ways of addressing it. The Peace Studies & Conflict Resolution: Human Security in the Mediterranean and Beyond program provides the opportunity for students to understand peace and conflict in the interpersonal, institutional, societal, and global contexts and to engage with the subjects of intercultural dialogue, politics, religion, and nationalism as both causes of conflict and factors in peacebuilding. |
