Students entering the field, whether as practitioners, researchers, donors, policymakers, or community organizers, will benefit from this book’s creative approaches, intellectual rigor, and practical examples of navigating and evaluating the political, personal, relational, and institutional challenges of measuring the effectiveness of peacebuilding efforts.
