Item Engaging youth for resilient and inclusive societies - recommendations and summary report(2019-04-04) IDRCYouth engagement in Canada targets three main priorities: participation; protection; and prevention. Canada is working to create meaningful and equitable avenues for youth to engage in. The newsletter covers the conference in Ottawa, Canada (2019): “Public Seminar on Engaging Youth for Resilient and Inclusive Societies.” The seminar aimed to launch the UN Progress Study on Youth, Peace and Security (YPS), discuss its relevance, and explore how it can be applied to research, policy, and practice.Item Informal justice : the rule of law and dispute resolution in Post-Oslo Palestine; final narrative report - evaluation and discussion(Institute of Law, Birzeit University, 2006-08) Birzeit University.

The objective is to contribute to the construction of the collective memory of Mayan women in Guatemala, and through this of all women, so that it can be used for processes of individual and collective affirmation, and to enable women as subjects of our own history.Item Building capacities for better peacebuilding policy and practice : final report (July 12, 2005-July l 2, 2006)(Canadian Peacebuilding Coordinating Committee (CPCC), 2006-07) Lord, DavidItem Voces y caminos : de reparación para la población en situación de desplazamiento(Universidad de San Buenaventura Cartagena, 2007) Castro Peña, Edgar AndrésItem Voces y caminos : de reparación para la población en situación de desplazamiento(Universidad de San Buenaventura Cartagena, 2007) Suárez, Jorge MarioItem Acuerdos de paz : 12 años después(Guatevision, 2011)Item Different resources, different conflicts? : an exploration of the regional political economy of armed conflict in Colombia; final technical report(Departamento de Ciencia Politica, Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, CO, 2009-10) Rettberg, Angelika; Nasi, Carlo; Leiteritz, Ralf J.; Arboleda, Juliana; Bernal, AlexandraThis project sought to understand how the specific ways in which natural resources are produced, distributed, and sold affect the forms that armed conflict adopts in different regional or sub-national settings in Colombia. Our research analyzed the links between the extraction and distribution of licit natural resources and patterns of regional and local conflict. We focused on eight mineral and agricultural resources: (i) coffee; (ii) oil; (iii) bananas; (iv) flowers; (v) emeralds; (vi) gold, (vii) ferronickel, and (viii) oil palm. We have found that natural resources and the armed conflict are connected in multiple, non-linear ways: some resources such as gold, bananas, and oil have a direct link with the civil war; others, such as ferronickel and emeralds, are indirectly related to the armed conflict; finally, some resources, such as coffee and flowers are somehow shielded from the dynamics of the Colombian armed conflict.Item Desde diversas orillas : voces de mujeres colombianas sobre procesos de desmovilización, desarme y reinserción; verdad, justicia y reparación del reconocimiento de la diversidad a la búsqueda de articulación - informe de investigación(Instituto de Estudios Regionales INER, Universidad de Antioquia, Medellín, CO, 2010-08) Londoño F., Luz María; Ramírez P., Patricia; Ruiz G., Adriana María; Valencia M., David Enrique; Londoño M., Mónica; Vásquez P., María Eugenia; Dietrich O., Luisa MaríaItem Tejidos que lleva el alma : procesos generadores de condiciones habilitantes para la exigencia de justicia por parte de mujeres sobrevivientes de violencia sexual durante el conflicto armado en Guatemala; informe final(Asociacion Equipo de Estudios Comunitarios y Acción Psicosocial (ECAP), 2009-03) Fulchiron, Amandine; Paz, Olga Alicia; Lopez, Angelica; Alvarado, Maya; Castañeda, Patricia; Cabrera, Maria LuisaEsta investigación desarrolla, cómo la violación sexual fue utilizada como arma de genocidio y feminicidio durante el conflicto armado guatemalteco.

This detailed book emphasizes that these are not enough to account for the experience of embodied damage (on the mental, physical and social body) imposed upon the victims. It is important to describe the way that reparation discourse can be the legitimating base for transitional justice mechanisms, and at the same time an illegitimating mechanism, if introduced as a simple conflict management tool. Documentary review for this research leads to the conclusion that the reparation of victim damages becomes the measure of sacrifice in favor of ‘reconciliation’.Item Coordination and collaboration of efforts with organizations in Africa(Alliance pour le Contrôle du Tabac en Afrique (ATCA), Lomé, TG, 2011)Item Democracy and development in the Arab world : final technical report, Sep. 15, 2006 – Sep. 15, 2009(Institute of Financial Economics, American University of Beirut, Beirut, LB, 2009) Makdisi, Samir; Elbadawi, IbrahimMajor findings of this cross-country research show that while the traditional “modernity” variables remain important determinants of democracy in the long-run, they fail to explain the persistence of the Arab democracy deficit relative to other comparable regions. On the other hand, oil and conflicts and their interactions appear to explain this deficit. Country-specific factors can include religious divisions leading to authoritarian rule, outside interventions by other powers, de-industrialization, control by the state, persistence of colonial institutions. The report covers outcomes, outputs and activities of the project.Item Género y seguridad democrática : marco conceptual y criterios metodológicos(Fundación Género y Sociedad (GESO), San José, CR, 2003-10) Gomáriz, Enrique; García, Ana Isabel; Fundación Género y Sociedad (GESO)Item Gender and democratic security : conceptual framework and methodological criteria(Fundación Género y Sociedad (GESO), San José, CR, 2003-10) Gomáriz, Enrique; García, Ana Isabel; Fundación Género y Sociedad (GESO); Adolfsson, AnnaItem Here in the city there is nothing left over for lending a hand : in search of solidarity and collective action in peri-urban areas in Angola(Development Workshop, Guelph, ON, CA, 2011) Robson, Paul; Roque, SandraItem Communities and reconstruction in Angola : the prospects for reconstruction in Angola from the community perspective(Development Workshop, Guelph, ON, CA, 2001) Robson, Paul
