African Conflict Journal (ACJ)

Grey Frandsen, Executive Director

The African Conflict Journal (ACJ - http://www.africanconflict.org) is an online portal for information, resources and communication regarding African conflict and conflict resolution. This project was founded in March of 2001 and has been supported by UCLA and the Johns Hopkins University School for Advanced International Studies (SAIS). With over 1,500 email subscribers and thousands of online visitors daily, ACJ has established itself as a clearinghouse of information relating to a variety of topics concerning conflict and conflict resolution in Africa. The grant made to ACJ was to enable ACJ and CRInfo to forge a partnership that would enhance the capacities of both organizations, and to provide funds to ACJ for Web enhancements and infrastructure improvements. Unfortunately, although the Web enhancements were completed successfully, ACJ has not obtained the necessary funding to continue operating, and is apparently closing down in January, 2004. We are engaged in a discussion with them about whether and how CRInfo can continue to host some of their back material.

Peace is the work of justice indirectly, in so far as justice removes the obstacles to peace; but it is the work of charity (love) directly, since charity, according to its very notion, causes peace. -- Thomas Aquinas
