A think piece by Dr Rachel Horan, Director, TAG.
In this piece that I wrote for INCAS, I talk about the prevention, mitigation and resolution of conflict and the contributions that psychology can make to improved monitoring, evaluation, research, learning and accountability approaches (MERL and MEAL).
Ensuring the psychological safety of participants is paramount. MEAL and MERL activities in fragile, conflict-affected, and violent settings need to be conflict and trauma responsive. My article can be found on the INCAS blog Psychological Safety in Conflict Research
