Abstract
Many proponents of the Human Needs approach to severe conflicts argue that such conflicts arise from unsatisfied basic human needs and that the conflicts can be resolved when adversaries in a conflict, aided by facilitators, recognize that those unsatisfied needs and/or the perception of them were generated by their conflict. Building on that recognition, the adversary parties may change the conditions and/or their understanding of each other’s human needs. Those changes can then transform the conflict positively. Experience in problem-solving workshops provides evidence that these ideas often resonate with workshop participants. This combination of theory and practice in facilitated workshops and dialogue sessions is attractive to many workers in the conflict resolution field.
