    • ConnexUs & USAID are hosting Conflict Sensitivity & Integration: How Peacebuilders Can Influence Development Outcomes, an online crowdsourced knowledge-sharing campaign, through the end of 2022.

      You’re invited to participate however you can from wherever you are. One way that you can contribute is by responding to one or more of these questions to both share with and learn from ConnexUs’ global community:

      • How do you determine the extent of conflict sensitivity (CS) integration into programming? Do you have any tools that you could share?
      • How do you measure the success of CS integration into programming? Do you have any tools that you could share?
      • Beyond Do No Harm, what are some key factors of CS that impact (or help shape) your work?
      • How would you describe CS in your field?
      • What difficulties have you faced when integrating CS into your programs and activities?

      Please share your thoughts and ask any related questions you may have.

    • I’m definitely subscribing to this thread because I’m keen to see what everyone shares! ConnexUs & USAID have had over 300 people sign up for this campaign, so I’m looking forward to seeing the wealth of knowledge shared in this ConnexUs Discussion, the Thursday Talks, etc.

      In preparing for this campaign, I’ve been having conversations with a lot of experts in conflict sensitivity & integration—both those who explicitly label their work & thinking as CSI and those who have been doing conflict integration by default for years. I’ve also been reading up in the ConnexUs Conflict Sensitivity & Integration Thematic Action Area to see what sorts of resources people have uploaded on the topic.

      I’m also planning on re-listening to the Thursday Talk called Beyond Box Ticking: How Conflict Sensitivity Can Shape a More Equitable Aid System with Rahma Ahmed & Tim Midgley back in August. Their paper of the same title with Sherine El Taraboulsi-McCarthy & Alastair Carr has been immensely interesting—I think it’s one of the ‘must-reads’ for people interested in social impact in conflict-affected areas.

      One question I have for the group—have you had experience working with the private sector on conflict sensitivity & integration? What did that look like?

      I’m also really looking forward to seeing what you all have to share, as I’m admittedly a bit new to conflict sensitivity & integration, though I know this knowledge-sharing campaign will help me learn a lot.

      I’m interested in responses to Zander’s question about working with the private sector. Additionally, could anyone speak to how CS integration has been linked to the conversations around locally-led efforts?

      I’ll be re-listening to the Thursday Talk that Zander mentioned and hopefully be able to return with some more insight.

      Thanks in advance!

    • I am looking forward to learning more about conflict sensitivity especially that is something that we have been talking in one of my courses at the Maxwell School of Citizenship. I am interested to know the impact of conflict sensitivity and integration in the fragile regions’ context.

    • We have a Startup and Our solution is deepened In one major medium which is clinical advocacy. Through SPOrT PEACE, we hope to maintain and eliminate the impacts of conflict, mental ill-health, depression and violence situations such as the intra-personal conflict and promote the ethics and practices of common bonding as brother’s keeper.

      A good sporting activity and programs for persons individuals from different sides of the divide of conflict, discrimination, stigmatization and rascality, can help restore and instill tolerance and respect between individuals. SPOrT PEACE would desensitize stigmatization and depression to show all persons as being from a common ground with shared value that exist rather than indicate person’s physical situations, differences, hate, violence or other forms of conflicts.

      Therefore, Conflict sensitivity comes from the bulk and bold work of sensitisation, orientation through Sport Advocacies.

       

      We are termed SPOrT PEACE because we SPOT PEACE by undoing rascality for radicality.

       

      We are available to work for Partnership.

      • Hi Zachariah! Thanks for sharing this information about SPOrT PEACE. It’s really interesting to see this aspect of conflict sensitivity in practice. Where is your organization based? Would you be open to sharing it on our Collaboration Map so others can easily find you for partnership opportunities?
