Conciliation Resources (CR) is a dynamic international NGO that
supports community-based and national organizations seeking to prevent

development. Established in 1994, CR has programmes in the Caucasus,
the Uganda/Sudan borders and West Africa where we work in partnership
with local and international civil society organizations and
governments. CR also publishes Accord: an international review of
peace initiatives and we are involved in projects in Colombia, Fiji,

public and governmental policies on peace processes. We are funded
through grants from governments, independent trusts, and foundations.
