Get Started

As peacebuilders move increasingly to adopt digital tools and processes, we must reflect on how the design of technology connects to peacebuilding practice. This course introduces Build Up’s non-violent, human centered design process that incorporates best practices tailored to the intersection of peacebuilding and technology. 

This course will work best if you come to it with a concrete peacebuilding challenge in mind for which you want to design a program that leverages technology. The course assumes you have engaged with our foundation course Digital Peacebuilding 101, and have some initial ideas for a digital peacebuilding program that can be further refined using the design skills we will share here.
