OSCE Project Co-ordinator in Ukraine
Conflict prevention and resolution
While multiple OSCE measures and mechanisms have been enacted to address the crisis in and around Ukraine, the Project Co-ordinator, in line with its mandate, focuses its efforts on assisting Ukrainian stakeholders in addressing the consequences and consolidating social cohesion in the country during difficult times.
On a nationwide level, the Co-ordinator promotes dialogue as a tool of conflict prevention and resolution, and as an essential governance instrument for policy-making at all levels. To achieve this objective, it provides assistance to strengthen Ukraine’s community of mediators and dialogue facilitators through the training and development of learning materials and tools, provides methodological support to strengthen conflict analysis and management, and organizes and runs dialogue meetings on conflict-prone issues.
In mitigating the impact of the crisis across the country, the Co-ordinator helps develop and launch a system of assistance for crisis-affected people, including former combatants and their family members.
