Abstract
Parisa will be working this summer at the United States Institute of Peace in Washington D.C. The USIP is an independent, nonpartisan institution established and funded by Congress to increase the nation's capacity to manage international conflict without violence. USIP's strategic goals include: to help prevent, manage, and resolve violent international conflict both within and between states; to promote post-conflict stability and development; to increase peacebuilding capacity, tools, and intellectual capital worldwide; to build and shape the field of international conflict prevention and management and to professionalize its practice; to build knowledge and create innovative tools for peace building; to bridge research and practice in preventing, managing and resolving violent conflicts; and to teach, train, and inform policymakers, practitioners, students and the public about the challenges of conflict prevention, management and resolution and how to respond to those challenges.
