    observatory, research projects, publications and a documentation centre.

    The Research Peace Centre is a project of studies and popularisation of the Corporation for the Analysis, Research, Education for Peace and Conflict Resolution, CREARC.

    We analyze the conflict and their causes, the globalisation system and its effects, development and tendencies, from a multidisciplinary perspective of the investigation for the peace and we seek to outline alternatives in public policies as a form of peaceful transformation of the structural conflict.

    Our work proposal includes research projects, a conflict observatory, publications and a documentation centre.

    AREAS OF WORK:

    1. CONFLICT OBSERVATORY
    2. RESEARCH PROJECTS
    3. PUBLICATIONS
    4. DOCUMENTATION CENTRE

    CONFLICT OBSERVATORY

    This Observatory has been planned by CREARC as the first strategy for investigation. The Observatory leads us to the social reality and its interpretation: at the time that it systematizes information on specific topics, it serves as raw material for the analysis work. Moreover, it promotes meetings, debates and publications. It also establishes a permanent and direct flow of information among those who produce information and analyze it in the work fields defined in the investigation lines.

    RESEARCH PROJECTS

    The basic research lines are the following ones:

    Alternative dispute resolution (ADR)
    Daily social violence.
    Education, culture, media and peace.
    Peace building and human rights.
    Non-violence and pacifism.
    International conflict.
    National conflict.
    Environmental conflict.

    DOCUMENTATION CENTRE

    CREARC has a centre of documentary resources specialized on texts of theory of the conflict, peace building, reconciliation, arbitration, negotiation, transaction, mediation, research for the peace, education for peace, human rights, violence, alternative methods of conflict resolution, and a bibliography on conflict resolution. Most of the texts are in Spanish and some of them are in English or French.

    The Documentation Centre is divided in three sections:

    * File of Documents:
    With literature from different organisms, institutions, and national and international Non Governmental Organizations.

    * File of Magazines: With magazines selected thematically.

    * Library: 600 volumes, organized in thematic sections.

    3. CONFLICT TRANSFORMATION

    It is the area of CREARC work conflict transformation involves transforming the relationships that support violence.

    The transformation of the conflict is the changes of people and the relations that created the initial conflict.

    Thus, the cause-and-effect relationship goes both ways–from the people and the relationships to the conflict and back to the people and relationships.

    In this sense, “conflict transformation” is a term that describes a natural occurrence.

    Conflicts change relationships in predictable ways, altering communication patters and patterns of social organization, altering images of the self and of the other.

    CREARC works in the area of mediaciòn, negotiation, facilitation and reconciliation.

    4. SEMINAR OF EDUCATION FOR PEACE

    The Seminar of Education for Peace, CREARC, gathers people coming from different fields of the formal, not formal and informal education. Education for peace, according to our understanding, is a liberating education which encourages social action, peace and justice.

    The Seminar enables people with skills to face intolerance, conformism, ethnocentrism and other attitudes that contribute to perpetuate the structural, cultural and direct violence, in a peaceful way.

    OBJECTIVES

    The specific objectives are to:

    * Promote consciousness on the need of practicing Conflict Transformation and the building of a peace culture.

    * Raise interest and sensitiveness towards the need of educating on and for the peace, human rights and development.
