Since the fall of Soeharto in 1998, violent conflict has become more widespread across Indonesia. The human security costs have been significant: lives lost, property destroyed, and widespread fear and insecurity amongst those affected. Understanding the causes, nature and impacts of conflict is vitally important not just from a human security perspective but for those formulating development policy.
The Conflict and Development Program is an initiative of the Social Development Unit of the World Bank in Jakarta. Through mixed methods empirical research and grounded analysis, the program plans to explore further evidence on conflict in Indonesia, as well as the nexus between conflict, poverty (alleviation) and development. This can help in the design of development programs and projects aimed at reducing poverty and managing conflict.
Program synopsis and program on three years of Aceh peace are available in English now.
