Values, Ethics and Trust in Peacebuilding Network

可持续发展目标16中提出的促进和平社会和诉诸司法所需的治理需要信任，因为信任是人际关系和非个人关系、协作和机构稳定的基础。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，缺乏信任是建设和平在研究和实践中面临的一个关键挑战。信任被认为是承担他人行为和相互依赖所产生的风险。机构可以在人际交往过程中提供安全和保障，以建立信任，例如以公平、尊重、关怀和诚实等价值观为基础的程序伦理。然而，这种基于制度的信任是不够的，特别是在受冲突影响的社会中，其他条件，如通过生活经历和特定关系的历史发展起来的信仰体系，都会影响信任的能力。在实践中反思我们的道德规范是朝着这个方向迈出的一步，可以增强对建设和平研究和实践的信任。此外，我们的道德观以我们的价值观为基础，尽管在建设和平的研究人员或实践者之间很少讨论价值观。促进建设和平努力和研究的价值观、道德和信任之间的这种至关重要的相互联系尚未得到和平学者和实践者的充分重视。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，以便更好地理解支撑我们实践中的道德的不言而喻的价值观和假设，以及我们实践的道德如何影响我们建设和平工作中的信任。从本质上讲，我们希望研究研究人员，并鼓励来自我们网络的早期职业和博士研究人员。我们将首先通过使用电影，圆圈和“给予价值声音”演示来打开我们在介绍性研讨会中经常未提及的价值观。第二、第三和第四次研讨会将在菲律宾、肯尼亚和英国举行（由其他参与者虚拟参加），由来自亚洲、非洲和欧洲的项目调查员开发和领导，并由来自其区域网络和其他调查员网络的从业人员参加。使用适合区域背景的不同主题和方法，包括基于艺术的方法，我们将揭示围绕价值观，道德和信任的各种主题和问题。第五，也是最后一个，讲习班将汇集以前讲习班的发现，草拟一篇关于建设和平中的价值观、道德和信任的期刊文章，并为新开发的网络制定一项研究议程，以申请资助机会。该项目将通过协作写作产生四种类型的产出，以广泛参与价值观、道德和信任在建设和平以及能力建设中的重要相互联系。首先，我们将在免费的在线平台上发布每个研讨会的思考文章。其次，我们将出版《关于和平相关研究的价值观、道德、伦理和信任的小书》，它将部分是宣言，部分是实践指南，以讲习班参与者的案例研究和讲习班期间收集的图像为特色，在知识共享许可下，允许最大限度地吸收和翻译。第三，我们将拍摄参与者在网络活动中的过程和思考，并通过CTPSR YouTube频道发布。第四，我们将向相关学术期刊提交两篇期刊文章，一篇关于揭示我们的价值观，另一篇关于建设和平中的价值观、伦理和信任。

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.
