Until recently, ceasefires were largely overlooked, and only discussed generally in the context of research on peace processes, or in practitioner guidance. This is now changing. Project teams devoted to the systematic study of ceasefire agreements in civil conflicts at the Peace Research Institute Oslo and CSS invited researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to a workshop in Oslo in September 2019 to collectively explore how we can better understand and design ceasefires. This article for the journal International Peacekeeping, edited by CSS’ Govinda Clayton, Corinne Bara, and Siri Aas Rustad, offers a selection of work presented and discussed at this workshop.
