  This extensively revised and updated source book is for people working in areas affected by conflict and violence. Easy to use, well laid out, and including helpful visual materials, it provides a range of practical tools - processes, ideas, techniques - for tackling conflict. These tools have been developed over a number of years in collaboration with practitioners from around the world.
  The book embodies and reflects the rich diversity of over 300 practitioners from some 70 countries whom have pooled their variegated experience and adapted these methods to suit a wide range of situations. The book highlights the options available to individuals and organizations; equips them with a basis on which they can plan what responses are possible; and strengthens their capacity to engage in useful interventions. The final chapter provides a list of key conflict-related and peace-building resources, including organizations, publications and websites.
  For all practitioners who are working in conflict-prone and unstable parts of the world in the fields of development, relief work, human rights, community relations, peace and reconciliation, this book should prove an invaluable support.
