ABOUT
The Program on Intrastate Conflict is a program of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, Cambridge, Massachusetts. The program analyzes the causes of ethnic, religious, and other intercommunal conflict, and seeks to identify practical ways to prevent and limit such conflict. It is concerned with the vulnerability of weak, failed, and collapsed states, with enhancing good governance, with leadership in the developing world, with peace building and peace enforcement capabilities in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean, and with the role of truth commissions in conflict prevention and conflict resolution.
