Elections & Dialogues for Peace

Elections and Dialogues for Peace

This course examines the role of race and ethnicity in electoral conflict, best practices for free and fair elections, and best practices for the use of inter-ethnic dialogues as a tool for peace building. Using the Master Class format, this course will bring local and international experts to share their experiences while teaching students how to observe elections and use inter-ethnic dialogues to heal contentious rifts in ethnically divided societies. Students will apply this learning through a hands-on process of elections monitoring or the facilitation of an intergroup dialogue.
