WP2: Development 1: Strengthening of Research and Institutional Capacities

The deliverables of WP1 will be used in WP2 (Strengthening of Research and Institutional Capacities). This WP is two-fold. Firstly, it seeks to strengthen both academic staff and graduate students' research capacity while reinforcing research quality standards. Secondly, it seeks to establish a resource center at the institutional level, specialized in reconciliation and peace studies development and conflict. Workshops by an expert will be given to researchers in partner countries. The workshops will address state-of-the-art research studies and recent trends in research methods (reconciliation, conflict transformation, and peace studies).In addition, a more tailored research capacity building on reconciliation will be given, which is an important aspect due to the conflict between the different political parties in the partner countries. The WP leader will be responsible for delivering a research handbook manual and a curriculum. At the institutional level, reconciliation and peace studies resource will be developed. Equipment, books, journal articles, and other resources will be bought (including the purchasing and archiving historical documents). Developing a resource point for both policymakers and researchers.

WP3: Development 2: Networking and Reinforcing of National and International Cooperation.

WP3 (Networking and Reinforcing of National and International Cooperation) seeks to strengthen national and international cooperation. It seeks to bring different experiences and mindsets in one place, eg, through International Conferences. It also provides an approach to learn from the experience of other countries. This network will bring expert speakers and policymakers to share experiences and provide a recommendation. Finally, besides the online platform to share experience and strengthen cooperation, networking and mobility visits will be established to strengthen the status of research quality in Palestine.
