Visualising conflictpeace

Visualising Conflict/Peace is a groundbreaking collaborative atlas designed to explore the multifaceted dynamics of conflict and cooperation in Eastern Europe through innovative geo-visualisations. This atlas recognizes that conflicts—ranging from local disputes to global crises—are deeply interconnected with peace processes. By employing a critical multiperspective approach, it endeavors to present a rich tapestry of visual narratives rather than definitive solutions, emphasizing the complex interplay between conflict and peace.

The atlas showcases various case studies, reflections, and strategies that illustrate the nuanced “in-betweens” of conflict and peace, drawing on examples from regions such as the Western Balkans and South Caucasus. It is underpinned by critical cartography, raising questions about how visual representations shape understanding and influence power dynamics. With dedicated resources for peace researchers and cartographers, the atlas serves as an evolving platform for co-creating and refining visualisations, offering insights into the methodology and rationale behind each representation.
