A core goal of CBI is to assist like-purposed organizations and groups
by providing needed services and forming strategic alliances to establish
and maintain conferences, events, and capacity building projects that
promote understanding, conflict transformation, social healing, and
a consciousness of peace.
The team with Common Bond Institute has worked in the field of conflict
transformation, civil society, and related human services for over 33
years, with a strong track record of having organized nearly 40 major
international conferences and numerous capacity building skills training
programs in various countries and cultures, as well as offering needs
assessment, program development, resource development, coordination,
and networking support to assist newly emerging human service, civil
society, and educational organizations in developing societies.
Over the course of this work we have also developed an extensive global
network of colleague organizations, expert trainers, professionals,
and activists.
Although our work is global and we work with organizations and groups
from all areas of the world, in addition to programs held in the US,
some specific regions of conflict where we have held many of our conferences
and trainings include the Middle East, Russia, regions of the former
Soviet Union, Balkans, and Caucuses.
As one of the services we offer, we periodically contract with like-purposed
organizations to provide expertise and task completion, in addition
to extensive networking resources and opportunities for linking to collaborative
efforts to augment an organizations programs, and in ways that save
on precious financial resources. Since it is also contract based and
tied to meeting identified tasks and goals, it allows organizations
to take advantage of our services and talents for as long or short as
they deem it necessary.
Organizations and groups interested in exploring this service as an
alternative in meeting their needs can contact Common Bond Institute
