Religion in Conflict and Peace Building
This guide by the
United States Institute of Peace (USIP) seeks to help peacebuilding practitioners integrate religion into conflict analysis and programme planning. The role of religion in conflict and peacebuilding is complex, but this need not be a barrier to religion-sensitive peacebuilding efforts. It conceptualizes religion in five interrelated dimensions -
ideas, community, institutions, symbols and practices, and
spirituality - and employs five steps of analysis:
Self-reflection, understanding the context, conflict analysis, peacebuilding mapping, and
turning analysis into action.
