Abstract
This paper summarises the rationale, development, content, and delivery of a Post Graduate Diploma in Conflict Resolution and Peace Preparedness in Sri Lanka, a country that has experienced a violent and protracted social conflict over the last 25 years. It also describes the methodology which is being used to measure the peace impact of the programme. Difficulties encountered and lessons learned are discussed, and some early indicators of the programmes effectiveness evaluated. It is clear that the impact of such a programme cannot be fully measured in the short term, since peace education should be seen as a process whereby knowledge and skills gained can be both utilised in the short term and reflected upon in the long term.
