The Project on Justice in Times of Transition assists leaders in divided societies struggling with conflict, reconciliation and societal change by facilitating direct contact with leaders who have successfully addressed similar challenges in other settings.
By mobilizing our international network of seasoned leaders and practitioners to share their experience, we put the Project’s mission into action. Our powerful methodology of shared experience is grounded in two core principles: that people can learn from each other and that people can change.
