Values, Ethics and Trust in Peacebuilding Network

按照《可持续发展目标》16的建议，促进和平社会和伸张正义所需的治理需要信任，因为它为人际关系和客观关系、协作和机构稳定提供了基础。然而，在受冲突影响的社会中，信任往往在人际和非个人层面遭到破坏，许多和平建设者和和平研究人员认为，在研究和实践中，缺乏信任是建设和平的一个关键挑战。信任被认为是承担因他人行为和相互依赖而产生的风险。机构可以在人际互动过程中提供安全和保障，以实现信任，例如以公平、尊重、关心和诚实的价值观为基础的程序道德。然而，这种以制度为基础的信任是不够的，特别是在受冲突影响的社会，以及通过生活经历和特定关系历史形成的信仰体系等其他条件影响信任能力。在实践中反思我们的道德操守是朝着加强对建设和平研究和实践的信任这一方向迈出的一步。此外，我们的道德以我们的价值观为基础，尽管建设和平研究人员或实践者很少讨论价值观。价值观、道德操守和信任之间这一改善建设和平努力和研究的重要相互联系尚未得到和平学者和实践者的足够重视。为了解决这一被忽视的领域，我们寻求建立一个关于建设和平中的价值观、道德操守和信任的新网络，将世界各地从事建设和平研究和活动的学者和实践者聚集在一起，以便更好地了解在实践中支撑我们道德操守的不言而喻的价值观和假设，以及我们实践中的道德操守可能如何影响对我们建设和平工作的信任。本质上，我们想要研究研究人员，并鼓励我们的网络中的早期职业和博士研究人员。我们将从使用电影、圈子和“表达价值”的演示文稿开始，揭示我们的价值观，这些价值观在介绍性研讨会上通常是不言而喻的。第二、第三和第四期讲习班将在菲律宾、肯尼亚和英国举行(实际上有其他参与者参加)，由来自亚洲、非洲和欧洲的项目调查人员开发和领导，并有来自其区域网络和其他调查人员网络的从业人员参加。我们将使用适合地区背景的不同主题和方法，包括基于艺术的方法，揭示围绕价值观、伦理和信任的各种主题和问题。第五，也是最后一次，讲习班将汇集前几次讲习班的发现，起草一篇关于建设和平中的价值观、道德操守和信任的期刊文章，并为新开发的网络制定研究议程，以申请资助机会。该项目将通过合作编写四种产出，广泛参与建设和平和能力建设中价值观、道德操守和信任之间的重要相互联系。首先，我们将在免费提供的在线平台上发布每个研讨会的一篇思考文章。其次，我们将出版《与和平有关的研究的价值观、道德、伦理和信任》小书，这本书将部分作为宣言，部分作为实践指南，其中包括讲习班参与者的案例研究和讲习班期间收集的图像，这些书籍符合知识共享许可，允许最大限度地进行理解和翻译。第三，我们将制作记录参与者在网络活动中的过程和反思的电影，并通过CTPSR YouTube频道发行。第四，我们将向有关学术期刊提交两篇期刊文章，一篇是关于揭示我们的价值观，另一篇是关于建设和平中的价值观、道德和信任。

Governance necessary to promote peaceful society and access to justice as proposed in the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16 would require trust as it provides a foundation for interpersonal and impersonal relationships, collaboration and institutional stability. However, trust is often broken both at interpersonal and impersonal levels in conflict-affected society and many peacebuilders and peace researchers view the lack of trust as a key challenge for peacebuilding in both research and practice. Trust is considered to be about taking risk arisen from others' behaviour and inter-reliance. Institutions can provide safety and security in the process of interpersonal interactions to enable trust, such as procedural ethics underpinned by values of fairness, respect, care and honesty. However, such institutional based trust would not suffice, especially in conflict-affected society, and other conditions such as one's belief system developed through life experiences and the history of specific relationships impact on the ability to trust. Reflecting on our ethics in practice is one step forward in this direction to enhance trust in research and practice of peacebuilding. Furthermore, our ethics are underpinned by our values although values are seldom discussed among peacebuilding researchers or practitioners. This crucial interconnection between values, ethics and trust to improve peacebuilding efforts and research has not received sufficient attention from peace academics and practitioners. To address this overlooked space, we seek to create a new network on values, ethics and trust in peacebuilding by bringing together scholars and practitioners working on peacebuilding research and activity across the world to better understand unspoken values and assumptions that underpin our ethics in practice and how our practised ethics may impact trust in our peacebuilding work. In essence, we want to research the researcher and encourage early career and PhD researchers from our networks.We will begin by unpacking our values that are often unspoken in an introductory workshop with the use of a film, circle, and 'giving voice to value' presentation. Second, third and fourth workshops will be held in the Philippines, Kenya and the UK (joined by other participants virtually) developed and led by the project investigators from Asia, Africa and Europe and participated by practitioners from their regional networks and other investigators' networks. Using different topics and methods suitable for the regional contexts, including art-based methods, we will uncover various themes and issues around values, ethics and trust. Fifth, and final, workshop will bring together the discovery from the previous workshops to sketch a journal article on values, ethics and trust in peacebuilding and develop a research agenda for the newly developed network to apply for funding opportunities. The project will produce four types of outputs through collaborative writing for a wide engagement with the crucial interlinkage between values, ethics and trust in peacebuilding as well as for capacity building. Firstly, we will publish a think piece from each workshop on freely available online platforms. Secondly, we will publish Little Book of Values, Morals, Ethics and Trust for Peace-Related Research, which will be part manifesto and part practical guide, featuring case studies from workshops participants and images collected during the workshops, under Creative Commons license allowing for maximum uptake and translation. Thirdly, we will create films capturing the process and reflections of participants during the network activities and distribute them through the CTPSR YouTube channel. Fourthly, we will submit two journal articles, one on uncovering our values and another on values, ethics and trust in peacebuilding, to relevant academic journals.
