Get to Know Us Better

“We are living in a time when the number of wars has more than doubled in the past ten years. Just in the last few days, we have seen the horrifying escalation of the conflict between Israel and Palestine. The war in Ukraine is the largest war in Europe since World War II. Millions of people displaced, billions in infrastructure destruction, and the reality is that violence is escalating. Peacebuilding is like medicine. In the same way that doctors work to understand the causes of diseases and find real, effective, and practical treatments, so too is peacebuilding in combating conflicts.”
Kai Brand Jacobsen, Executive Director of PATRIR – Peace, Action, Training and Research Institute of Romania.

Testimonials

“As a professional development practitioner I had taken many courses on Monitoring and Evaluation of Development Programmes/Projects. The training on Developing Strategic Tools for Measuring Impact and Effectiveness of Peacebuilding Projects and Interventions has broadened my knowledge and understanding of the tools and skills for systematic and structured ways for measuring Impact and Effectives of Pecebuilding Projects and Interventions. The training is very important and timely given to equip Civil Affairs Field Staff on Monitoring and Evaluation concepts, tools and processes.”

Affairs Officer, Unites Nations Mission in Liberia (UNMIL) 

“…PATRIR is […] an example of going global from the local level. Based in the university town of Cluj in Transilvania, a multicultural setting in central Romania, in the past 10 years PATRIR has crossed boundaries and borders both geographically and mentally. The results and outcomes of its endeavors have been visible throughout the globe from Sudan, to Cyprus, to Kosovo and Northern Ireland to name a few.” 

Dr. Oana Cristina Popa 
Former ambassador of Romania to Croatia 

“I will not hesitate to unreservedly recommend this program [Systemic Peacebuilding, Conflict Transformation & Post-War Recovery, and Reconciliation (PCTR)] for all actors in the pecebuilding field. I dare say that without it you stand the risk of missing the mark, with it your chance of success in your endeavours are quite significantly enhanced!”
