Why Study A Conflict Resolution Program by CCPPA(m): 4:14pm On Mar 01, 2018 |
Introduction From the time man evolved systems of fixed settlements situated in specific geographic areas, conflicts between these settlements, villages or cities whichever they were called, became intensified for the purpose of domination over ever larger areas of land for each settled community. History abounds with examples of resolution of these conflicts through dialogue. Conflict resolution has become today, a high profile subject taught in universities and lectured on, at many a seminar and conference. Experts in this field are held in awe in some circles in many countries. Yet, conflict resolution is not new. It has only been packaged differently in our age. Conflict resolution has been an important part of human life since ancient times, when humans grouped together to form communities to live in co-operation with each other. We are also aware of nomadic communities that have fought against each other for domination over certain areas of land and thereafter arrived at resolutions of the problem through discussion and various arrangements. Pursuing a peace and conflict studies program can be a great way to help prepare yourself for a career in the field or for future appointments in the discipline. If you are not already aware, conflict and peace studies is an area of social science that analyzes violent and non-violent behavior and the structural mechanisms that lead to conflict with the goal of using this understanding to promote peace and a healthy human condition. Professionals in Peace and Conflict management may work in a variety of areas including international criminal courts or tribunals, civil-military operations, community based restorative justice, human rights protection and monitoring, local peace building training, nuclear and small arms proliferation and other higher level positions in labour relations, mediation, arbitration or contract negotiation and many more.
