The ‘Common Good’ in Times of Transition

This conference will discuss the role of human rights and equality in political transitions from violent conflict, with a view to informing efforts to foster inclusive political settlements and conflict resolution in fragile and conflict-affected states. Speakers and participants will include practitioners, policy makers and researchers from the UK and overseas.

Plenary and break-out sessions:

• Navigating inclusion in transitions from conflict


• Local struggles for human rights and equality: entry points for political change


• Unsticking the stuck: peace implementation, formalised unsettlements and ideas for moving them forward


• Tactics for change and changing tactics: from dirty deal to social contract in deeply divided societies


• How to support social change through peace processes and beyond
