With each side firmly rooted in their core beliefs, values, and histories, conflicts can feel immovable.

This approach is vital for building trust and creating pathways toward lasting peace in seemingly intractable situations.

Our latest report presents the NCG Escalation Model, mapping the ten critical stages of conflict escalation and providing insights on the ways conflict evolves from intrapersonal introspection to all-out war. Based on Friedrich Glasl’s model, the NCG Escalation Model acts as a compass to understand these stages, not only to better navigate today’s complex geopolitical landscape, but also to identify opportunities for de-escalation.   Read the full report now on our website 💡 #NegotiationCouncilGeneva #ConflictResolution #Escalation #Negotiation #EscalationModel

𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 In many recent cases, deadlines were used to force the other party into a rushed decision. However, deadlines often fail, as they either push both sides to walk away without an agreement or lead to hurried, short-sighted solutions. In contrast, timelines provide steady, reasonable pressure on both parties. They help establish early common ground and set the stage for productive negotiations.   As conflicts progress, negotiations must keep pace.

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 Back-channel and grounded-in-reality negotiations are both critical for successful peace negotiations. On one hand, official and back-channel negotiations taking place in diplomatic hubs like Geneva, Addis Ababa, and New York are essential for fostering collaboration among a diverse range of high-level actors. On the other hand, grounding one’s approach in reality—being attuned to the daily consequences of conflict on impacted populations—allows for the tailoring of objectives and the refinement of solutions to ensure they are actionable and appropriate.   Follow our integrated approach to de-escalate⬇️ #NegotiationCouncilGeneva #Negotiation #Mediation #Diplomacy #ConflictResolution
