Programme Introduction

With the evolving nature of security over recent years and a shifting focus from counterterrorism towards resolution of geopolitical conflict, the importance of stabilisation and peacebuilding cannot be understated in foreign and security policy and practice.

The Terrorism and Conflict Studies team contributes to the effectiveness and impact of stabilisation and peacebuilding initiatives through research, training, and support. This programme consolidates all pertinent projects that implement and evaluate gender-responsive, intersectional strategies for comprehensive approaches to stabilisation and peacebuilding, as well as considering the need for integrated programming approaches with the constricting of available resourcing for these efforts.
