10th INTERNATIONAL INCORE SUMMER SCHOOL 2009
The INCORE (International Conflict Research Institute) Summer School at the
University of Ulster's Magee Campus in Northern Ireland provides a
structured learning opportunity to analyse the dynamic and constantly
changing field of conflict resolution and peacebuilding. Focusing on the
latest research and concepts in peace and conflict studies and practice;
participants are invited to compare, contrast and learn from different
perspectives.
The 2009 International Summer School will run from 15th - 19th June.
This year we are offering three courses:
* Interpersonal Reconciliation after Violent Political Conflict
* Peacemaking and Peacebuilding: Exploring the Lessons Learned from Northern
Ireland
* Evaluation and Impact Assessment of Peacebuilding Programmes
Alongside these modules we also run the Northern Ireland programme to
provide participants with an opportunity to network with others, gaining a
deeper insight into Northern Ireland.
For details on the Summer School visit:
http://www.incore.ulst.ac.uk/courses/ss/ The Transitional Justice Institute at the University of Ulster will be
running their Summer School entitled "Negotiating Peace, Negotiating
Justice" in the same week as the INCORE Summer School. TJI and INCORE are
partnering schools in 2009 so participants from the TJI Summer School will
join INCORE Summer School participants during the Northern Ireland Programme
and for social events.
Final Deadline for applications 20 APRIL 2009
The INCORE Summer School is recognised by UNITAR (United Nations Institute
for Training and Research) Programme of Correspondence Instruction in
Peacekeeping Operations, and may form part of The Certificate-of-Training In
Peace Support Operations (COTIPSO) Programme.
BURSARIES FOR INCORE SUMMER SCHOOL AND ROUNDTABLE (Deadline 23 April
2009)
INCORE (International Conflict Research Institute) based at the
University of Ulster in Northern Ireland, and associate site of the
United Nations University, is please to offer five bursary places for
its 10th International Summer School and roundtable on 'Evaluating
Research in Divided Societies'. The bursaries are funded by the
International Development Research Centre (IDRC). The bursaries are
specifically available for the Evaluation Module of the Summer School,
see
http://www.incore.ulst.ac.uk/courses/ss/ and to attend the
'Evaluating Research in Divided Societies' Roundtable that will follow
the Summer School.
The bursaries will help widen participation in the Evaluation Summer
School Module, but are also part of the 'Evaluating Research in Divided
Societies' project which INCORE is undertaking in partnership with the
IDRC. The project considers the challenges of evaluating research in
violently divided societies, and how different evaluation methodologies
could be adapted and utilized to deal with the specific ethical,
methodological and practical challenges that research in divided
societies presents (see extended notes below).
The bursaries will cover:
1. Summer School fee
2. A return economy class flight from country of current residence
to Northern Ireland
3. Accommodation costs (including the nights of 14 June 2009
through to 23 June 2009)
4. Per diem for the week
Successful applicants will be expected to participate fully in and
attend:
1. The Summer School Evaluation Module (15-19 June 2009, arriving
14 June)
2. The 'Evaluating Research in Divided Societies' Roundtable (22-23
June 2009)
Application Process
To apply for the bursaries applicants must:
* Complete the standard Summer School application process,

In spite of the increased funding for research in violently divided
societies in recent decades, specific frameworks for the evaluation of
this type of research do not exist. Currently, evaluation of Conflict
Prevention and Peacebuilding (CPPB) interventions in violently divided
societies is largely geared towards program evaluation, rather than
evaluation of research. Although there are many similarities between
CPPB program evaluation and evaluation of research in violently divided
societies, the differences between the two, coupled with the fact that
this research is often used to inform CPPB programming decisions,
highlight the need for research-specific evaluation frameworks to be
developed. Moreover, given the relationship of research to CPPB
programming decisions, there is a pressing need to develop
research-specific evaluation frameworks if donor organizations are to
continue to justify funding CPPB programs and activities. Therefore,
through a literature review, commissioned "think-pieces" and a
roundtable meeting of practitioners and academics whose expertise lies
in the fields in evaluation and in researching violently divided
societies, the proposed project will consider the challenges of
evaluating research in violently divided societies, and how different
evaluation methodologies could be adapted and utilised to deal with the
specific ethical, methodological and practical challenges that research
in divided societies presents.
