Founded in 2008, CPCS is a Cambodia-based non-governmental organisation (NGO) working in the field of peacebuilding and conflict transformation in Asia.

Recognising the wealth of peacebuilding knowledge and experience in the Asia region, the Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies (CPCS) was born from a desire to further strengthen, support and share Asian approaches to conflict transformation.

The foundations for what is now CPCS were laid by local peace initiatives such as the Alliance for Conflict Transformation (ACT) and Action Asia. With ACT committed to peacebuilding at home in Cambodia, CPCS focused on engaging the Asia region at large.

CPCS invests in individual peace leaders in Asia to bolster their effectiveness and impact on peace and conflict transformation. The unique Applied Conflict Transformation Studies (ACTS) MA and PhD programs blend academic research, practical peacebuilding, and leadership skills for peace practitioners from across Asia to strengthen their peace work.

CPCS hosts regional forums and conferences to provide safe and dynamic spaces for practitioners and academics to share and learn from Asian peace processes and conflict transformation. Emerging theory, best practices, and reflections from the region’s experts in mediation, negotiation, and facilitation of the peace process are made available through publications and videos available on the CPCS website and social media.
