Human-rights Promotion and Peacemaking
Programme group Political Economy and Transnational Governance (PETGOV)
This NWO funded project explores whether and under what conditions promotion of human rights helps or hinders conflict resolution in practice.
NWO funded (Conflict and Security program)
Period: 20-12-2010 until 28-02-2013
Governments and non-governmental and international organizations often push for improvement in human rights to promote justice and long-term peace in conflict settings.
our study will combine closely linked qualitative and quantitative analysis. The former involves participant-observation study of the research team's mediation efforts. The quantitative analysis involves analyzing new data on month-to-month developments in human-rights promotion and conflict in 20 conflict cases.
The project research will be conducted jointly by PETGOV at the University of Amsterdam and the Dialogue Advisory Group.
