MHCR combines reconciliation research and practice with peace education at the Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution at George Mason University.

OUR MISSION

MHCR aims to bring scholars and practitioners of reconciliation together to both research reconciliation practices and develop the impact of ongoing and future reconciliation processes.

MHCR gives special focus to supporting and enabling grassroots communities within conflict zones, connecting them with national and international efforts.

Specifically, MHCR studies and promotes insider reconciliation facilitated by locals who are able to adapt reconciliation techniques to the region’s cultural context, and utilize their status as trusted members of the local community to create an environment of mutual trust and understanding.

Together, we hope to lead collaborations of research and practice that will enable transformative reconciliation around the world.
