Experience from various bicc research projects suggests that knowledge of local conflict dynamics can improve government policies and external engagement—at minimum to ‘do no harm’ and at best to prevent or end violence. Our conference will, therefore, focus on the opportunities for integrating findings from field research into national and multilateral approaches to sustainable peacebuilding and conflict transformation. We will look at concrete examples of research in different conflict regions as we discuss local peacebuilding, the distribution of small arms and light weapons, non-state armed groups and forced migration and return.
