Action Research in Conflict-Affected Societies: Conversation about the Intersections of Field Research and Applied Practice


Thursday, April 13, 2017
4:15pm - 5:30pm
Metropolitan Building, Room 5183

This workshop will explore diverse ways in which field research and applied practice in peacebuilding can complement each other. It will start with a brief overview of the facilitator’s recent peacebuilding activities in Asia, the Middle East, and sub-Saharan Africa. It will then explore a set of thematic questions inspired by the real-world experiences of the facilitator and the participants. These questions include: How does field research support applied practice?; In what ways can applied practice stimulate innovative research and theory-building?; How can peacebuilders carry out their practice in such a way as to advance research and theory-building purposefully?

Examples of the facilitator’s publications relevant to these questions include:
