Elicitive Curricular Development

A Manual for Scholar-Practitioners. Developing Courses in International Peace and Conflict Studies.

The ECDM is a systematic collection of experiences and lessons identified in academic contexts around the world in Austria, Cambodia, Colombia, Brazil, Ethiopia and Iraq. The ECDM reflects core elicitive principles such as the importance of a focus on relationships, looking beyond the episode of conflict, collaboration, communication and local knowledge. These principles are consistent with the mission of the Research Center for Peace and Conflict (InnPeace) to teach, learn and research as reflective processes of relevant social questions of peace and conflict transformation. 

This manual offers helpful guidelines for academic and administrative staff, as well as international cooperation partners trusted with developing peace and conflict courses at the graduate and postgraduate levels.

“With the appearance of this Elicitive Curricular Development Manual (ECDM), the Innsbruck team of scholar-practitioners have woven a seamless quilt among practitioner best practices, the formation and teaching of these core concepts and skills directly in local realities, and the imperative melding of both to design effective and adaptive university peacebuilding programs in violence affected zone,” —  George A. Lopez, the Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C., Professor Emeritus of Peace Studies at the Kroc Institute at the University of Notre Dame, in his forward to the manual.
