Think tank

Groupe d’Etudes sur les Conflits et la Sécurité Humaine

Conflict and Human Security Study Group ‒ GEC-SH

This organisation may not be a traditional think tank. We have included it in this list as we deem it to be a 'boundary' organisation – in other words, it might have some qualities or characterstics of a think tank.

GEC-SH is a research unit operating in the Kivu University Research Center of the Higher Pedagogical Institute of Bukavu. Its research areas are currently limited to the Kivu region (North Kivu, South Kivu and Maniema). Its thematic focus on conflict-related research looks at land and identity and the process of conflict transformation. Its thematic focus on human security looks at security relating to communities, the environment, politics and the economy.
