Reflective Peacebuilding: A Planning and Monitoring Toolkit

This toolkit was emailed to me by the Oxfam International Youth Partnership Program, and I thought some of you might find it interesting and useful. Check it out!

The toolkit centers on the belief that reflection and learning, knowledge and theory are key to the peace-building process. Its goal is to improve peacebuilders’ ability to be reflective practitioners; this involves enhancing peacebuilders’ capacity to design and impact transformative change, and track and improve upon those changes over time, in unpredictable conflict contexts. In particular it gives tools for reflection, learning in communities, conflict transformation and evaluating and monitoring change.
