1	Building peace together : A qualitative study of faith-based NGOs on intergroup reconciliation in Bosnia and Herzegovina Ecker, Merle Daliah January 2022 (has links) Intergroup reconciliation involves a holistic change in attitudes and interactions between groups. However, sustainable reconciliation has often times been overlooked from previous research. This paper aims to contribute to the research gap by applying the well-tested contact hypothesis in the context of NGO structure. The positive results in change of reconciliation attitudes suggests thereby that NGOs should not only be evaluated by its external effects but also by its internal effects on its own members. No negative consequences could be found. Combining intergroup contact with youth, providing informal education and combining it with inter-faith projects within a faith-based institution have yielded the best results. reconciliation inter-group reconciliation contact hypothesis inter-faith inter-group Bosnia Herzegovina NGO positive peace intergroup interfaith in-depth interview Övrig annan samhällsvetenskap
