March 27–29, 2014
This conference is closed to the public.
This conference is held in honor of Professor Herbert C. Kelman, who developed a method of conflict management known as “Interactive Problem Solving Workshops,” and involves representatives who are indeed influential, but not directly integrated into policy making and therefore more flexible to deal with each other and create new ideas. Panel discussions include various aspects of conflict in the Middle East as well as methods and strategies of conflict resolution. The conference also aims to help strengthen the network of conflict resolution researchers.
