What is peace and
conflict resolution?

4
Peace and Conflict Resolution is an area
of study that is concerned with how
violence and conflict can be viewed and
addressed through the intersections of
democracy, human rights, gender, poverty,
and governance. This area of focus
includes theoretical and practical
discussions of conflict management, peace
building, and, importantly, the root causes
of conflict and war.
 WHAT IS
PEACE?
Peace is an occurrence of
harmony characterized by
lack of violence, conflict
behaviours and the freedom
from fear of violence.

Peace is not simply the

absence of war. It is also the
existence of justice and
equality that guarantees
provisions of life are met.

 CONFLICT
- A hostility between one or more parties en route for
incompatible or competitive means or ends.
- Conflict may be either manifest, recognisable through
actions or behaviours, or latent, in which case it remains
dormant for some time, as incompatibilities are unarticulated
or are built into systems or such institutional arrangements
as governments, corporations, or even civil society.

10
 VIOLENCE
- According to the World Health Organisation, Violence is the
premeditated use of physical force or power, threatened or
actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or
community, which either results in or has a high likelihood
of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, or
dispossession.

11
 CEASEFIRE
- A bilateral or multilateral pause in all aggressive military
actions among parties involved in war, guerrilla warfare, or
violent exchanges with one another. Cease-fires sometimes
lead to steady or long-lasting military or political
settlements, but they plainly target to reduce tensions and
life-threatening damages while providing prospects for the
encouragement of other practices of conflict resolution or
management efforts.

12
 PEACEMAKING
- Peacemaking is the course of building a settlement between
disputing parties. This could be done through dialogues with
just the two disputants, it is often also done with a third-
party mediator, who assists with process and communication
problems, and helps the parties work effectively together to
draft a workable peace accord.

13
 PEACE ENFORCEMENT
- Operations undertaken to end military or violent exchanges
or acts of aggression, with or without the consent of one or
more parties to the conflict, to create a permanent and viable
environment and guarantees for such conditions. Peace
enforcement is typically associated with the employment of
military forces in order to generate ‘negative peace’, or the
absence of violent conflict engagement.

14
 PEACEBUILDING
- Policies, programs, and associated efforts to restore stability
and the effectiveness of social, political, and economic
institutions and structures in the wake of a war or some other
debilitating or catastrophic event.

15
 PEACE MEDIATION
- Peace mediation is "a voluntary process whereby a third
party assists two or more parties, with their consent, to
prevent, manage or resolve a conflict by helping them to
develop mutually acceptable agreements." (UN Guidance
for Effective Mediation, 2012)

16
 PEACE KEEPING
- The maintenance of public security, civil services, and
cease-fire agreements in war and conflict zones by UN or
regional military, police, and civilian forces with the consent
of the nation-state on whose territory these forces are
deployed.
- Peacekeeping involves coordinated efforts to ensure stability
and relative normalcy in the aftermath of otherwise
extremely volatile and chaotic situations.

17
 ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE
RESOLUTION
- A wide range of procedures and approaches other than
litigation that aim to identify resolutions to conflicts that will
be mutually accepted by the constituent parties.

18
 IMPORTANCE OF PEACE
- Peace generates a sense of security in our minds, helps us
live in a world which is void of hostility.
- Peace is important for social well being where people live in
harmony.
- Peace makes life on earth worth living. It enables men and
nations to grow and to hope to build a better life for coming
generations.
- Peace means progress and happiness
