Academic Career
Barbara Tint is the Director of International and Intercultural
Conflict Resolution for the Conflict Resolution Graduate Program.
She received her Ph.D. in International Conflict Resolution from
the University of Melbourne in Australia, where her research focused
on collective memory and conflict resolution within the context
of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Her work in peace and conflict
resolution stems from her background in Political
Psychology, where she has focused largely on the psychological
dynamics of international conflict. She has served as the Chair
of the Feminism and Peace and the Conflict Resolution Working Groups
for the Society for the Study of Peace, Conflict and Violence and
currently serves on the Committee for the Psychological Study of
Peace of the International Union of Psychological Science. In addition
to her teaching, she works as a consultant, facilitator, mediator
and trainer in a variety of domestic and international arenas.
She has worked in Australia, Israel/Palestine, India and Costa
Rica participating in various peace and conflict resolution related
activities in those regions. Her current research and writing focuses
on her ongoing work around collective memory, dialogue in inter-group
conflict, peace education and culture, and the processes involved
in the development of pro-peace attitudes.
Personal Statement
Current times, more than ever, demand new ways of engaging in
the world and with each other. We are each responsible for making
our own spheres of influence healthier and more peaceful domains.
My own release from the world of work involves spending as much
time in nature as possible and in nourishing times with family
and friends, particularly, my two children.

live forever." - Mahatma Gandhi
