Abstract

The Framework for Assessing Resilience (FAR) for Peace report outlines an approach to analyzing resilience in conflict-affected societies, aiming to inform peacebuilding and conflict prevention strategies. The report's objectives include identifying local capacities for peace, understanding how societies absorb, adapt, or transform in the face of conflict, and integrating resilience as a guiding lens across peace, development, and humanitarian fields. Using participatory research methods, the FAR model promotes local ownership, fostering processes that enhance societal resilience and support long-term, positive peace.
