2018 Available in French and English

It is important to use this tool when working in communities where there are existing tensions or conflicts. Our work can either help or cause harm when we work in a conflict setting.

Sometimes, a project that is not directly linked to the conflict can unintentionally make a conflict situation worse. We do not want this to happen! This tool helps to ensure that in planning or carrying out any project, we are being sensitive to the conflict context at all times.

This resource contains a list of questions for a community to consider as they plan and carry out a project. The questions help a group to think through the intended and unintended impacts that a project might have on a conflict.
