When aid is not enough: integrating conflict prevention in humanitarian resilience programmes

21st October 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Join us for the Belfast launch of the Christian Aid/Mitchell Institute report, “Integrating Conflict Prevention in Humanitarian Resilience Programmes,” based on preliminary fieldwork conducted in Burundi, DRC, South Sudan, and Myanmar. This research was designed to assess the integration of conflict sensitivity and prevention in humanitarian resilience programmes with the aim of building resilience in conflict settings.

Findings indicate that conflict analysis can help to enhance the conflict sensitivity of resilience programmes by contributing to understanding of how the conflict context and the resilience
programmes interact. This understanding helps aid organisations, local partners, and communities work together to maximise the positive potential of programmes in conflict settings while minimising potential negative outcomes, especially those that further contribute to conflict.
