项目摘要

The aims of the Development Award are to build equitable and sustainable partnerships, support capability development, and bring together expertise across universities, disciplines and sectors to support a full stage Network Plus bid, and other future activities. It will also manage the transition between an existing AHRC Network grant ending in July 2020, Pedagogies for Peacebuilding, and a new Network. Ultimately, the aim of the Network is to evidence and enhance the capacity of universities - through engagement with schools, teaching and student support, and action research, knowledge creation and intellectual leadership - to respond to contemporary conflicts and crises. There is consensus among academics, donors, governments and inter-governmental agencies that universities can play unique and diverse roles in conflict prevention and resolution, and that this role remains poorly understood and under-explained. The Development Award is led by a team which is inter-disciplinary, integrating insights from politics, conflict management, education, environment, development studies and communication studies. It is also multi-institutional, featuring a collaboration between two UK-based ROs, (York and IDS, Sussex) and 5 partner 'Hub' universities: Chiang Mai (Thailand); Los Andes (Colombia); Makerere (Uganda); University of Rwanda; and the University of the Western Cape (South Africa). The Hub universities have played a leading national and regional role in responding to very different conflicts, as sites of pedagogy and training, dialogue, partnership, and intervention. The country cases, as a set, provide a spectrum of conflicts and contexts for comparison (authoritarian rule, elements of fragility, complex transitions, changing nature of conflicts over time, 'post' conflict violence, etc.). The Development Award envisages an interlinked set of activities. To build equitable and sustainable partnerships, four sets of activities are planned. First, face to face meetings (York, IDS) will enhance partnership development across all partners, and regionally in Africa (Cape Town). These meetings will ensure that Network activities are challenge-led and locally responsive. Second, a knowledge exchange fund will facilitate knowledge transfer and the sharing of learning across country contexts, with priority given to Southern scholars. Third, stakeholder mapping and partnership development events will enhance the partnerships of Hub universities in-country and regionally across disciplines and sectors. Fourth, translation of core resources, such as a leaflet about the Network and select website pages, into local languages will ensure that partnerships and outreach do not exclude non-English speakers. Capability development will be delivered in part through face to face meetings e.g. training and the co-design of theories of change. Further support will be provided through a series of training webinars (on ethics, impact, equitable partnerships, due diligence, action research), while early career researchers will be mentored to conduct baselines studies (mapping potential academic and non-academic partners; identifying university-specific resources on conflict; and documenting university policies on access and participation). The researchers recruited to undertake these studies will form the leadership group of a new early career researcher network on universities and conflict. To enhance capability, funding support is also provided to partner universities to support aspects of due diligence, such as the collation of information and document translation. Learning from the Development Award will be captured on an ongoing basis e.g. through blogs, and resources such as the baseline studies and website will provide a sustainable legacy. Future planning is integrated throughout the 12 months of the Development Award, with activities designed to support the full stage Network Plus bid and other funding applications.

发展奖的目的是建立公平和可持续的伙伴关系，支持能力发展，并汇集各大学、学科和部门的专业知识，以支持全面的“网络+”竞标和其他未来活动。它还将管理将于2020年7月结束的现有人权理事会网络赠款“建设和平教学法”与新网络之间的过渡。该网络的最终目标是通过与学校的接触、教学和学生支持、行动研究、知识创造和智力领导，证明并提高大学应对当代冲突和危机的能力。学术界、捐助者、政府和政府间机构之间的共识是，大学可以在预防和解决冲突方面发挥独特和多样化的作用，而这一作用的理解和解释仍然很少。发展奖由一个跨学科的团队领导，汇集了政治、冲突管理、教育、环境、发展研究和传播学等方面的见解。这也是一个多机构合作的项目，包括两所英国大学（约克大学和苏塞克斯大学的IDS）和5所合作的“枢纽”大学：清迈大学（泰国）；安第斯山脉（哥伦比亚）；乌干达Makerere ();卢旺达大学；西开普省大学（南非）。枢纽大学作为教学和培训、对话、伙伴关系和干预的场所，在应对非常不同的冲突方面发挥了主导的国家和地区作用。国家案例作为一个整体，提供了一系列冲突和背景进行比较（专制统治、脆弱性因素、复杂过渡、冲突随时间变化的性质、“后”冲突暴力等）。发展奖设想了一系列相互关联的活动。为建立公平和可持续的伙伴关系，计划开展四项活动。首先，面对面会议（纽约，IDS）将加强所有合作伙伴之间以及非洲地区（开普敦）的伙伴关系发展。这些会议将确保网络活动以挑战为主导，并对当地作出反应。其次，知识交流基金将促进知识转移和各国之间的学习分享，并优先考虑南方学者。第三，利益相关者测绘和伙伴关系发展活动将加强Hub大学在国家和区域内跨学科和部门的伙伴关系。第四，将核心资源，如关于网络的传单和选定的网站页面翻译成当地语言，将确保伙伴关系和外展活动不排除非英语人士。能力开发部分将通过面对面的会议进行，例如培训和变革理论的共同设计。将通过一系列培训网络研讨会（关于伦理、影响、公平伙伴关系、尽职调查、行动研究）提供进一步支持，同时将指导早期职业研究人员进行基线研究（绘制潜在的学术和非学术合作伙伴图；确定大学特有的冲突资源；并记录大学关于获取和参与的政策）。被招募来进行这些研究的研究人员将组成一个新的关于大学和冲突的早期职业研究人员网络的领导小组。为提高能力，我们亦向合作大学提供资助，以支援尽职调查工作，例如整理资料和翻译文件。从发展奖中获得的经验将持续记录下来，例如通过博客，基线研究和网站等资源将提供可持续的遗产。未来的规划将贯穿12个月的发展奖，旨在支持整个阶段的网络+投标和其他资金申请。
