Online Learning

The Online Learning project is currently being developed with the support of funding from the Cadbury Trust and the Southall Trust. The project aims to explore the ways that new developments in information and communications technologies may benefit teaching, learning and practice in the field of conflict resolution. Currently three projects are running, which may be accessed via the links on this page. We are currently working on three other pilot projects which will go online in the course of the next year.
