- Title
Collective Practices of Human Development in Political Violence and Its Long Shadow.
- Authors

- Abstract
Research on human development in violently and rapidly changing contexts requires innovative concepts, methods, and outcomes. Toward that end, articles in this issue focus on practice-based research in situations of adversity during and after acute phases of violent conflict. The goal of this issue is to focus on intersubjective sense-making - how children and youth in situations of violence, displacement, and other attendant consequences interact with those circumstances and with other people, especially in collectives intervening on their behalf. We explain and illustrate that research in formal and informal interventions can, in different ways, help us understand the nature of human development and gain insights to support development against great odds. This focus on collective practices highlights the systemic nature of contemporary violence and innovative dimensions to consider in human development.
