Centre for Peace Studies has been at the forefront of developing new ideas about Conflict Resolution, Mediation, Peace keeping, Human Security and Peace Building. It has developed an international reputation for the practical application of these ideas in war zones and communities driven by conflicts, most notably in and out side Sri Lanka. This has involved working with warring parties, Government agencies, NGOs, regional and international organizations, together with the civilian communities caught up in these conflicts.
The CPS Peace and Conflict Studies Program offers a rare professional development opportunity for miscarried professionals in fields related to Conflict resolution.
