Applied Conflict Transformation Studies (ACTS)

ACTS is an innovative program, which develops and articulates the experience of people working for peace, human rights, democracy and justice; builds new theory from practice; and tests it in reality. This program bridges the gap between academic research and the wealth of experience that exists on the ground. ACTS is rooted in the real work and experience of participants, developing participants’ practical skills and creating new theory from their own experience.
