DESCRIPTION:"Mining\, Conflict and Dialogue in Peru." Iván Ormachea Choque 
 is&nbsp\;President of ProDiálogo Prevención y Resolución de Conflictos in 
 Peru. Since the beginning of the century\, Peru has experienced significan
 t political and social changes\, largely a result of the end of armed conf
 lict\, the introduction of neoliberal policies\, and the increase of corpo
 rate investment to extract raw materials (mainly metals). Marked increases
  in the price of metals enticed most major mining companies to start explo
 ration projects. While subsequent improvements in the economy led to Peru 
 being declared as one of the fastest growing economies of Latin America\, 
 with economic growth also came an increased number of social conflicts and
  destructive consequences that threatened the core of Peru's democracy. Co
 mmunities and extractive companies\, mostly in the highlands\, were forced
  to coexist\, facing the challenge of building a collaborative relationshi
 ps based on trust. This talk deals with experiences of the Peruvian NGO Pr
 oDiálogo in promoting -- in an impartial manner -- effective consensus bui
 lding processes\, mostly between mining companies and local communities. S
 ome challenges and lessons learned will be shared.Pizza is served. Follow 
 us on Twitter at: PARCCatMaxwell\, tweet #ConvoInConflict.
