Development practitioners around the world are increasingly stressing the significant role of culture in the creation of unequal development, poverty, conflict and fragile governance. This is a manual put together by GIZ FLICT in the form of a workshop guide, to document and share the knowledge base it has developed in conflict transformation. The workshop has a strong focus on internal transformation of individuals, groups, organisations and communities. This publication tries to recognise the fundamental connection of culture to division and conflict and also its potential to provide creative solutions to problems.
