Our Mission

The end of the Cold War gave way to new threats to peace and security. Ethnic and religious conflicts, regional wars, terrorism and human rights violations are erupting with increasing frequency around the world. While governments and large international organizations often intervene, there are special situations which can best be dealt with by smaller and flexible independent organizations. Conflict Solutions International (CSI) was created to deal with those challenges.
 

As a small, independent, non-partisan organization, CSI serves as a fact-finder, monitor and mediator. It can also provide key resources such as legal research and media relations. Central to its mission is not only a role of fact-finder but also of spokesperson for those peoples and movements whom traditional media has left behind. In that sense, CSI shares certain goals with investigative reporters and news organizations. However, it differs from them in significant ways because it can also offer negotiation and other expertise and thus use the information towards the goal of conflict resolution.
 

Based in Washington, D.C., CSI maintains representatives and advisors in several countries.  Specializing in difficult areas, the organization is action and crisis oriented.  While we remain true to the spirit of our non-profit status and do not charge for our services, we strive to operate with the efficiency and flexibility of a private enterprise.
 

Among the services we can provide are:
