DESCRIPTION:"Conflict Mitigation and Peacebuilding through Skills Developme
 nt."&nbsp\;Speaker: Catherine Gerard\, Director\, Program for the Advancem
 ent of Research on Conflict and Collaboration (PARCC)\, Associate Director
 \, Executive Education Programs\,&nbsp\; Adjunct Professor of Public Admin
 istration\, Maxwell School of Syracuse University. According to the United
  Nations Development Program\, “Peacebuilding involves a range of measures
  targeted to reduce the risk of lapsing or relapsing into conflict by stre
 ngthening national capacities at all levels for conflict management\, and 
 laying the foundations for sustainable peace and development.”&nbsp\; Peac
 ebuilding is then a broad term encompassing many approaches and\, often\, 
 differing expectations. PARCC faculty have been engaged in several&nbsp\; 
 projects in Belize\, Jordan\, and Israel aimed at conflict mitigation and 
 capacity building between groups.&nbsp\; Scholars posit that successful in
 tergroup work requires prolonged and involve co-operative activity that is
  purposeful. In addition\, we believe that individuals require a high leve
 l of conflict management skills. This “Conversation” will touch on the des
 igns\, underlying theories of change\, pitfalls\, and challenges of sustai
 nability. &nbsp\;Conversations in Conflict Studies is a weekly educational
  speaker series for students\, faculty\, and the community. The series\, s
 ponsored by PARCC\, draws its speakers from Syracuse University faculty\, 
 national and international scholars and activists\, and PhD students. Pizz
