An Indonesia, and Southeast Asia, where cooperation is the norm, diversity inspires progress, and conflict is addressed through multi-partiality and non-adversarial approaches. We envision a region where differences are not sources of division but foundations for peace and justice.
To transform conflict into collaboration. We believe conflict and differences are natural, but violence and division are not. When people come together, conflict becomes the catalyst whilst diversity becomes a powerful driver of positive change.
Our approach is simple yet powerful: we call it multipartiality. Instead of taking sides, we bring people with conflicting views, concerns and ideologies into the same space, helping them discover common interests while respecting their differences. This is what makes our work unique.
Multi-partiality in Action begins with identifying and engaging those directly involved in conflict or divided by differences. We advocate for human rights, but we never frame those who oppose them as enemies. Instead, we create opportunities for dialogue where everyone can interact, express their perspectives, and address differences freely and respectfully. We honor diverse ideological standpoints and welcome anyone who wishes to promote their own faith or beliefs in ways that uphold mutual respect.
Through Conflict Transformation, we reshape how individuals, organizations, and governments approach conflict, moving away from adversarial methods and toward cooperative solutions. We use conflict analysis to understand the underlying causes and effects of problems, focusing on actions that cause the problems, not who the individual actors are. By fostering respect across differences, we enable all sides to find commonalities that can serve as the foundation for collaboration. In doing so, we transform conflict into a catalyst for collaboration.
