Description: Das Projekt "Management von Umweltkonflikten in und zwischen Entwicklungslaendern - Erarbeitung von Methoden und Aufbau eines internationalen Netzwerkes" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich (ETH), Forschungsstelle für Sicherheitspolitik und Konfliktanalyse durchgeführt. Leading Questions: 1) What new or existing principles and mechanisms of conflict management prove efficient in high tension conflicts induced or exacerbated by environmental degradation? 2) How can bottom-up approaches in conflict resolution which build upon indigenous, cultural and social resources be linked to top-down approaches so that both public participation and state capacity are strengthened? 3) How can principles and methods of environmental conflict management contribute to sustainable resource use? 4) What roles could women play in both conflict resolution mechanisms as well as in sustainable development efforts and how can gender biases in these areas be overcome? Abstract: The pilot project ECOMAN (Environmental Conflict Management and International Network) pursues a threefold goal: 1) to intensify research in the field of environmental conflict management in developing countries; 2) to establish and institutionalize an international network of partners in selected developing countries; 3) to prepare the implementation of environmental conflict management methods in at least one ongoing conflict. By management of environmental conflicts we understand the constructive transformation of ongoing, violent or potentially violent conflicts which are induced by environmental degradation within and among developing countries. This pilot project will help to prepare a project of the same name within the scope of Module 7. The focus of the main project will lay on the implementation of the theoretical results within the framework of a concrete mediation program. The pilot project builds on the current 'Environment and Conflicts Project' ENCOP which looks into the monitoring of environmental conflicts. With the new project, we go a step further. In ECOMAN, it is the theory and practice of environmental conflict management which stands at the center of our interest. Both theory and practice shall be pursued in close and institutionalized cooperation with partner institutes in selected developing countries.
