Popis: | This Knowledge Note provides key insights from the BICC annual conference titled “Between concepts and reality: How to deal with armed groups in transition phases of violent conflict?”. This conference, held in virtual format on 11 and 12 November 2021, explored whether there is a need for fresh thinking in engaging with (former) combatants. Around 100 international academics, policymakers and practitioners participated online. The key insights gained and discussed in this Knowledge Note are the following: 1) While DDR concepts are informed by situations on the ground, they are also shaped by the structures and mandates of international implementing organisations. 2) Although DDR has evolved over time, overall innovation is lacking. This is partially due to international organisations' risk aversion and their tendency to stick to the same approaches. 3) Despite the prevalence of lessons learned, many are not applied. 4) Research should play a more prominent role at different levels of DDR processes, in particular at the practical level, with targeted support for practitioners. Summarising each conference session and breakout group, this Knowledge Note explains why the above insights emerged as crucial. A video documentation of the conference is available on YouTube. |
