Discussions of current conflicts often
highlight their complexity. These conflicts involve many people, civilian
and military, in both direct and indirect ways; they relate to internal,
inter-group histories and to external, international interests; they are
driven by multiple and competing motivations, some of which are lofty and
grand while others are selfish and narrow. Furthermore, these "complex
humanitarian emergencies" (CHEs) prompt many types of international
responses that range from humanitarian efforts to reduce suffering to grass
roots and high level efforts to end fighting.
This report addresses how international
agencies that undertake programmes to promote survival and/or peace can
determine what their impacts are? How can they trace and assess the outcomes
of their work as these affect inter-group conflict?
