All Articles | Berghof Handbook for Conflict Transformation. In this article, Hannah Reich discusses the issues of uncertainty that remains central in post-war situations even though direct physical threats from through warring factions have been successfully brought to an end.
Furthermore, the legacy of the war has to be dealt with. This legacy usually includes a society that is divided into different factions that have hardly any constructive relationships with each other and that lacks a ‘conflict culture’, which allows expressing, altering and transforming the different narrations of the past, the dissimilar perceptions of the present and the unalike visions of the future.
This article, on the one hand, seeks to contribute to the debate on how culture can contribute to peacebuilding, by presenting an interactive theatrical group work and performance method called Forum Theatre as a possible format for intervention designed for post-war peacebuilding.

The Berghof Handbook for Conflict Transformation is Berghof Foundation’s (formerly Berghof Conflict Research’s) key publication. Constantly evolving and developing, this online platform presents cutting-edge knowledge and experience for scholars and practitioners working on transforming violent ethnopolitical conflict. Since its inception in 1999, the Berghof Handbook is designed to present state-of-the-art research and practice in conflict transformation to an international audience.
It has three primary aims: fostering critical discussion both among and between academics and practitioners; bridging the gap between theory and practice in the field of conflict transformation; and including a wide range of voices and perspectives from different regions throughout the world, as well as from multiple disciplines and faculties. The website content comes in the form of commissioned Articles by leading experts and a Dialogue Series on key issues.
