Center For International Conflict Resolution
Columbia University
Committed to Conflict Transformation and Peace Building
The Center for International Conflict Resolution (CICR) at Columbia University, New York, contributes to the resolution of international deadly conflict through research, education and practice. CICR strives to increase understanding of international conflicts through innovative, collaborative research and is committed to offering courses, fellowships, scholarships and training programs that disseminate knowledge about conflicts and their causes.
CICR’s efforts focus on participatory processes that increase social capital and engagement in long-term peace processes. We encourage the movement towards ‘positive’, sustainable peace. We generate creative opportunities, even if they are simply instances, which can help strengthen this process. We foster inclusiveness and creative human development. Learn more.

CICR Involvements
"I am very pleased and proud to be a part of CICR. I pledge my full support for these activities: There has been a solid record of progress, stretching around the globe from Colombia, to East Timor to Iraq, where CICR has had a presence and made a difference. As we continue to hear reports of conflicts in the troubled world in which we live, there will be no shortage of opportunities for people to engage in peacemaking, peace building and peacekeeping. The unique fusion of formal education, and the participation in such efforts that CICR offers - and particularly on the part of such a great and internationally renowned institution as Columbia - I think do make it unique among such institutions in the world."
