Conflict Analysis

The conflict analysis should answer the following key questions:

• What are the root causes of tensions and potential triggers?
• Who are the main actors in the conflict? What are their motives, capacities and opportunities to inflict violence?
• Is conflict likely to re-emerge?
• Which geographical areas are and are not controlled by the State? OECD Development Assistance Committee Handbook on Security System Reform, p. 53 (2007)
• What roles have security sector actors played in the conflict? UN Security Sector Reform Integrated Technical Guidance Notes, p. 70 (UN Department of Peacekeeping 2012)
• Have security sector actors contributed to, or been among the root causes of, the conflict? UN Security Sector Reform Integrated Technical Guidance Notes, p. 70 (UN Department of Peacekeeping 2012)
• What are the most prevalent conflict dynamics among local stakeholders? UN Security Sector Reform Integrated Technical Guidance Notes, p. 72 (UN Department of Peacekeeping 2012)
