Following the strategic plan of the movement (2004-2009), SCI organizes a seminar, related to SCI’s working in conflict areas.
The main aim of the seminar was to develop a coherent approach in relation to how SCI as peace-organization can act in areas where direct violent conflicts (can) appear or already have taken place. We received a grant from the European Youth Foundation (EYF) for this seminar.
Some key-questions of the seminar:
1. What are (pre-, post-) conflict areas where SCI should work in?
2. What can SCI do and what can SCI better leave to other organizations?
3. How (in what way) should SCI work in conflict areas to build peace in an effective way?
4. How should SCI prepare volunteers to work in conflict areas?
