Affected people need tools to critically understand their context and to participate in creative problem solving, thus allowing them to move from victim to survivor, from violence to peacebuilding. Through this dissertation I examine the role of theatre as one form of creative expression and how it can contribute to the process of healing and reconciliation, leading to peacebuilding. Using a qualitative research approach I observed theatre performances and interview theatre participants, audiences, and facilitators in three different locations in Africa whose communities have experienced violent conflict: Uganda, Kenya, and Zimbabwe. I complement this primary field research with secondary data from organizational project reports, websites, as well as other academic research. My research provides an empirical review of responses from these interviewees, incorporating analysis using MaxQDA qualitative data analysis software. Since I was able to return to each research site two to four years after primary data collection, this research uniquely includes a longitudinal perspective. Concepts of forgiveness, healing, reconciliation, and resilience arose as precursors of peacebuilding. I identify positive effects of participating in theatre projects as increased communication skills, community problem solving, and victim-perpetrator communication; increased confidence and positive identity; reduced isolation; and a venue in which to have stories heard. Negative effects include retraumatization and emotional insecurity; physical insecurity; a lack of community ownership of the project; and Non-Government Organization (NGO) or donor control. Finally, conditions by which theatre would be better positioned to make a positive contribution to healing and reconciliation are a safe and trusting environment, physical and emotional security, community ownership, cultural relevance, authenticity, trained and motivated facilitators, and when the project takes place in the cycle of violence. I conclude that theatre as one type of arts-based peacebuilding provides a venue for storytelling which contributes to reclaiming one’s identity, healing relationships, and thus moving affected persons from being victims to survivors, and moving communities from violence to peacebuilding. Key words: protracted violence, political conflict, war-torn communities, arts-based peacebuilding, applied and community theatre, trauma, retraumatization, forgiveness, healing, reconciliation, resilience. v Preface A version of chapter 3 has been accepted for publication: Borisenko, Laurel. “Refugee Theatre as a Tool of Resilience in Kenya.” The Canadian Journal of Peace and Conflict Studies, 48 (2016).

  • Lessons Learned from Mediation Processes from Pre-Talks to Implementation
    From Pre-Talks to Implementation: LESSONS LEARNED FROM MEDIATION PROCESSES From Pre-Talks to Implementation: LESSONS LEARNED FROM MEDIATION PROCESSES Eemeli Isoaho, Suvi Tuuli This document has been produced with financial assistance from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland. The contents of this document are the sole responsibility of CMI. May 2013 Language editing by Stephen Thompson Graphic design by Hiekka Graphics. Printed by Yliopistonpaino. CMI INTRODUCTION Crisis Management Initiative (CMI) is a Finnish, independent, non-profit organisation that works to resolve conflict and build sustainable peace across the globe. Our tireless mediation and peacebuilding efforts are based on the strong belief that all conflicts can and should be resolved. As a private diplomacy organisation, CMI works to prevent and resolve violent conflict by involving all actors relevant to achieving sustainable peace. We do this by supporting regional mediation capacity and skills, by bringing together local actors and facilitating confidence-building dialogues, by strengthening the sustainability of peace through new approaches for conflict prevention, and by rapidly providing flexible mediation support at different stages of the peace process. Over the past years, CMI has built its capacity in peacebuilding and developed partner- ships with local and regional actors, including the European Union and the African Union. Founded in 2000 by President and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Martti Ahtisaari, CMI has grown significantly in recent years. We now have a team of over 70 professionals dedicated to conflict prevention and resolution, and field offices in several regions of the world, in addition to our offices in Helsinki and Brussels. CMI has recently been recognised internationally as one of the most influential private diplomacy organ- isations.

  • Reconciliation – Theory and Practice for Development Cooperation
    SEPTEMBER 2003 • KAREN BROUNÉUS Reconciliation – Theory and Practice for Development Cooperation Preface A vast majority of Sida’s most important partner countries are in a situation of violent conflict or post conflict. During 2002 the agency supported more than 150 projects and programmes, which had the purpose of contributing to the resolution of violent conflicts and/or the consolidation of peace. Statistics tell us that around 50% of armed conflicts that have ended will re-emerge within a ten-year period. The experience of Sida, other develop- ment agencies and partners is that one has to consolidate peace by address- ing issues such as lack of democracy, insecurity and failed development. However, reconciliation is a basis for every attempt to peacebuilding. This realisation is illustrated by the increasing support for truth commissions, trauma healing programmes and war tribunals. This paper, commissioned by Sida from the Department of Peace and Conflict Research at Uppsala University, aims both to enhance knowledge regarding the concept of reconciliation and to identify the role of develop- ment cooperation in reconciliation processes in societies after internal con- flict. The study highlights some trends in current theory and research on rec- onciliation, based on particularly important contributions to the field, and gives practical examples of reconciliation projects in post civil war societies. On the basis of this theoretical and practical knowledge, recommenda- tions are made for how Sida and its partners may work to strengthen and sup- port national initiatives for reconciliation in post-conflict partner countries. In preparation of the revision of Sida’s Strategy for Conflict Manage- ment and Peacebuilding (1999), the Division for Humanitarian Assistance and Conflict Management initiated a number of studies to highlight import- ant aspects of development cooperation and conflict management.

Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies University of Notre Dame Issue No. 6, Summer 2004 Religion, Africa, conflict and peace R EPORTS FROM K ROC’ S CONFERENCE IN U GANDA Who aids international aid workers? — pg. 18 Real-time policy research engages students — pg. 22 peace colloquy 2 One congregation offers a lesson in peace n April, I had the privilege of traveling to Uganda with University of Notre Dame faculty, staff, and administrators for a conference “in the field.” The idea of holding a conference in Africa was sparked by this year’s Rockefeller Visiting Fellows program, which focused on religion and conflict in Africa. But the conference also reflected the institute’s growing relationship with alumni and other peacebuilders in East Africa. I One of my most memorable experiences from the trip underscored how scholarship and local realities can interact in unexpected ways. Several of us attended Mass on Palm Sunday at a local parish near Jinja. The church building consisted of a large tin roof supported by rough-hewn beams. We learned that the structure had blown down in a storm, and the congregation had only recently restored it, this time using nails instead of twine to make it more stable. While the facility was not ornate, it did ably fulfill its purpose: keeping off the rain. As the rain grew heavier throughout the morning, a throng of people — several hundred by my count — squeezed together under this roof to sing joyful, rhythmic songs of worship. After the service the sun broke through the clouds, and the congregation reassembled beside the church.

  • Recasting Reconciliation Through Culture and the Arts Second Institute: October 10-17, 2004 Report of Proceedings
    Recasting Reconciliation through Culture and the Arts Second Institute: October 10-17, 2004 Report of Proceedings Recasting Reconciliation through Culture and the Arts was the theme of the third round of the Brandeis International Fellows Program, sponsored by the International Center for Ethics, Justice and Public Life at Brandeis University in 2003–2004. This report documents the second and final institute of that program, held on October 10-17, 2004. The institute was attended by nine of the 10 program Fellows. It coincided with Re-Imagining Self and Other: Creativity and Ethical Action in the Aftermath of Violence, a public symposium convened on October 13 and 14. For additional information about the Fellowship Program and for a report documenting the first institute, please visit http://www.brandeis.edu/ethics/fellowships/bif/index.html. Recasting Reconciliation through Culture and the Arts was designed to highlight and strengthen artistic and cultural approaches to reconciliation by engaging those who already use them in documenting, reflecting upon, creating theory about, and sharing their work. During the first institute, the Fellows established a collaborative framework for their inquiry and a research agenda for the following year. During the second institute, the Fellows shared portfolios that documented their work throughout the year, and offered each other appreciative, critical inquiry on working papers that discuss their work. They also continued to explore the meanings of reconciliation and questions surrounding the contributions of the arts and cultural work to the rebuilding of broken inter-communal relationships. The institute was held at the Walker Center in Newton, Massachusetts. It was codirected by Cynthia Cohen, the director of Coexistence Research and International Collaborations at Brandeis University, and Jonathan Fox, founder of Playback Theatre and the director of the School for Playback Theatre.
