External actors provide humanitarian and development assistance to (post-) conflict countries engage in the reform of state institutions, security sectors, and national armies and accord assistance to civil society organisations to support service delivery and government accountability.
The international community has become increasingly involved in ending conflict and violence in crisis-affected countries. The potential of technology should not be exaggerated, yet digital applications can broaden the scope of participation and professionalization in CPPB activities to a wider range of (non-Western) actors. We argue that they face challenges in contributing to skills and knowledge development but emphasise nevertheless that these challenges are similar to those faced by current classroom training initiatives. In this article, we discuss the opportunities and limitations of such applications for CPPB training. Online courses and “serious games” have in particular received interest in recent years. In response, many organisations are looking at e-learning applications to provide cost-effective training at a broad geographical scale. This development has also led to an increase in personnel in these organisations, posing challenges for staff training.
In recent decades, governmental and non-governmental organisations have increased the number and scale of Conflict Prevention and Peacebuilding (CPPB) activities in conflict-affected countries.
