This publication provides guidance on how to understand the religious dimensions of conflict and take them into consideration in peacebuilding. More specifically, the text 1) examines key definitions and principles; 2) offers a systematic method for identifying and collecting data on how religion contributes to driving conflict and may assist in peacebuilding; and 3) provides case studies from Chad, Northern Ireland, Myanmar, Syria and Thailand to illustrate how each step of this method works.
