The Berghof Approach
While conflict is inevitable, violence is not. We bring people in conflict together, creating space for conflict transformation.
In our 50th anniversary year, we are building on our strengths to adapt to a changing global context.

The overall goal of Berghof’s work in this region is to support Afghan-driven efforts to resolve the protracted conflict and to restore resilient and sustainable peace.
This course is a five-day intensive programme, designed for experienced mediators who work at Track 1-1.5 levels.
The project supports mediation, local consultation, and dialogue in four Yemeni governorates and seeks to include local governance issues in the peace process.
We are supporting an inclusive Afghan-owned and led process to establish sustainable peace in the country.
We run projects that enable young people to recognise peace and nonviolence as important values in their lives.
Peace making is no longer just an amateur art form, it really has become a discipline. […] and the German Berghof Foundation have done an enormous amount to turn this into a discipline.
