Conflict analysis and policy engagement for conflict prevention and human security

This project contributes to preventing and managing deadly conflict by providing stakeholders and decision-makers with early information and in-depth analysis they need to take preventative action. With Canada's support Crisis Group aims to develop gender-sensitive and pragmatic policy recommendations for relevant decision-makers and key conflict actors. This project pays particular attention to women and other historically excluded groups from political participation in different stages of conflict and conflict resolution highlighting poorly understood gender dynamics in conflict settings. Project activities include: (1) producing 26 new publications with gender-responsive conflict analysis and recommendations (2) producing 50 short and rapid analyses on evolving conflicts or emerging crises (3) publishing 60 multimedia products on complex conflict dynamics and (4) convening 6 policy discussions on contexts of subjects of high-interest.

The expected outcome of this project includes: better equipped peace and security stakeholders to respond in an integrated and gender-responsive manner to conflict dynamics in a range of complex situations. This includes to take action to preventing mitigating and managing crises and conflicts.
