| Centre for the Study of Forgiveness and Reconciliation, The School of International Studies and Law, Coventry University | Report Error | | Geographical Location: Coventry, United Kingdom | | Degrees Offered: Master of Arts / Postgraduate Diploma in Peace and Reconciliation Studies | | Description: 'Conflict and violence is not just something that is 'over there', it is endemic within our own societies, communities and groups, and to achieve peace at these levels also involves the pursuit of reconciliation.

Hence, the aim of the MA in Peace and Reconciliation Studies is to enable students to develop the knowledge and skill base necessary to understand the linkages between the different levels of conflict in the world, to understand the theory and practice of peace-making and peace-building at the various levels, and to evaluate alternative modes of action and intervention in the attempt to transform violent and destructive conflict along non-violent and constructive channels.
