CDI works to strengthen women's capacity, build consensus around shared positions, and to promote women's involvement in governance and peace-related processes. // HUMANITARIAN ENGAGEMENT & ACCESS: Conflict Dynamics' Humanitarian Engagement and Access program provides policy guidance and direct support to humanitarian practitioners and engages access influencers, such as government and opposition group representatives, to improve humanitarian access and negotiations through processes firmly rooted in humanitarian principles and international laws and norms. // CHILDREN IN ARMED CONFLICT ACCOUNTABILITY: The Children in Armed Conflict (CAC) Accountability Initiative promotes the prevention and remedy of serious violations of international law committed against children in situations of conflict by providing trainings, technical advice, and knowledge-exchange opportunities for national and international practitioners and policymakers. // INNOVATION, STRATEGY, & RESEARCH: Conflict Dynamics' research and methodology team provides a rigorous foundation for CDI's programs by conducting research in the fields of conflict resolution, peacebuilding, and governance; developing frameworks and approaches for holistic peace practice; and providing strategic planning and program design, monitoring, and evaluation advice.
