Imagine Center for Conflict Transformation

Civic and Social Organizations

Overview

The Imagine Center for Conflict Transformation (the Imagine Center) is an independent, non-political organization that is dedicated to positively transforming relations and laying foundations for lasting and sustainable peace in conflict-torn societies. Started in 2007 as an Azerbaijani-Armenian dialogue project, Imagine has developed into an organization that sustains networks of hundreds of individuals around the world committed to working across conflict divides towards creating linkages and improving understanding between and within their societies. With representatives, team members in Washington DC, Tbilisi, Yerevan, Baku, Istanbul, Berlin, and elsewhere, the Imagine Center has carried out a large array of activities – from research, conferences, and methodology development to dialogues, trainings, workshops, and peace action campaigns in Armenian-Azerbaijani, Turkish-Armenian, Syrian, Georgian-South Ossetian, Georgian-Abkhazian, Russian-Ukrainian, and other local and regional contexts. Today, the Imagine Center is a platform of open dialogue and a channel of collaboration for youth, analysts, historians, politicians, educators, and journalists both between and within conflict-torn societies.
