Concordis International
• A British non-profit organisation that focuses on policy-level dialogue supported by in-depth research.
• A strong track record of building relationships across conflict boundaries (South Africa, Rwanda and Sudan).
• An extensive network of contacts for quality research and peace-building expertise.
Our Approach
Working in support of official peace negotiations where they exist, we aim to build relationships that pave the way for peace or contribute to ongoing negotiations or post-conflict nation-building. Our well-researched discussions move beyond the lines of confrontation to build on shared purpose and explore new possibilities for peace.
Few share our distinctive approach based on:
• Long-term transformation of relationships across conflict boundaries.
• Influential individuals meeting out of the limelight for greater flexibility and freedom.
• Informal, inclusive, low-profile consultations.
• Conscious impartiality.
• In for the long haul - not distracted by headline-making crises.
"I would count your work in Sudan in the top one or two of the public peace processes I have encountered. Your level of sophistication about the process, and your ability to frame the issues in such a productive way, are truly outstanding".
